you should probably switch to jquery 1.8.3. I believe that was the last version that included browser detection

[mariusa]

I recommend to drop browser detection and support only IE 9+, which has native canvas support.

Folks who still need IE8 can stick to farbtastic 1.x. Let's move on...

please specify the jquery version in bower if you want to use the version <1.9. Otherwise add the dependency to jquery.browser plugin as explained here.
