1.Visit some sites of your choice (e.g. www.cnn.com, www.aol.com, www.yahoo.com) in the same tab.  
2.Focus the location bar, and type some characters related to visited pages (e.g. "cnn", "yah", "aol", "yahoo") 

Actual Results:  
No suggestions are given for accessing history. 

Expected Results:  
The location bar should prompt some suggestions containing previously visited sites that are match with the input characters. Clicking on suggestion should load the specific page. 

Note: However, Fennec remembers bookmarked pages in bookmark manager and history manager.

Build no. skipped me, so I'll state it here: 20100701042304. Test was done against Linux-maemo5 (the Nokia N900)

Do the sites never show up in the awesomebar list? Even if you try it twice or wait a few seconds?
