I've included a design change to the APTURLRedirector project which will bypass the "Switch to Ubuntu" screen if it's detected from the UA that the machine is linux and attempt to launch the apt link. After 5 seconds additional text will display informing the user that you need Ubuntu for this to work and provide the link to learn more. This fix has been committed. I would love to implement the older functionality (Possibly after Chris implements sending the additional header to *.ubuntu.com) for now this change ensures that Firefox users won't need to incur an additional step trying to get packages from apt.ubuntu.com
