step by step install instructions:

1) login as root, and download this file:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.o...ux-i686.tar.gz
and save it to /usr/local

2) open the console and type:
# cd /usr/local
# tar xzf firefox-1.0+.en-US.linux-i686.tar.gz
# rm firefox-1.0+.en-US.linux-i686.tar.gz

3) now you can run Firefox in /usr/local/firefox/firefox. You can create a launcher or symlink on the desktop and double click it will start FF.

Question: Are GNOME or KDE (as well as applications like OpenOffice.org, AbiWord, Mozilla/Firefox, etc) designed for Server use? (GNOME and AbiWord are officially GNU software btw.)

or, use ATOS, the Official Operating System of the Adeptus Telepathica.
I don't know what this is, and I googled it and found nothing... some introductions please?

there is also a free software release of MacOS (maybe the fanciest OS:)):

Sorry... its an idea a friend and I came up with a while ago. I'd had a few drinks last night.

Have any of you seen my song "ethererium"?

Does it work on x86?

Anyone know something about googlebot? Or should we just rename this topic :D

it says "Binary (PPC/x86)", but I'm now downloading it with my modem so I'm not sure

i find it quite funny to read that some people tend to 'care' about what others are using as an OS. :P

I use mighty Windows XP and i don't give a damn.... because i know how it works.

Did i try Linux? Hell yes, did i like it?.... Hell no!

As long as the most people keep using windows, linux stays safer so thank you :)

Ok, I've installed Firefox and tout va bien.

Thanks :D

I don't think I can always follow M$ as I'm tired to pay M$ each 1-2 years for an update :D What I have access to is still only Windows 98 First Edition which is already 7 years old (well, I have a copy of Windows 2000 CD but it's evaluation copy). And I also want to be able to modify & share software instead of being kept at the mercy of M$ so using GNU/Linux is the best solution for me.

I'll keep Windows 98 as a temporary workaround anyways, as sometimes I have to use it.

I don't think so, as GNU/Linux is used more on servers than Windows NT, but still safer and being cracked less than Windows ;)

and I believe unlike those proprietary programs like Windows or Opera (which just draw more users by hiding problems), the more users we have, the more bugs will be found and fixed and the faster the software will be developed.

Rick, how do you make opera do that?
