FireFox .0.9.2 with GTK Print this jdshelp HowTo

I downloaded and tried this version of FireFox and it is superior to anything I have tried.

I just ran tar xzvf firefox-0.9.1-i686-pc-javadesktopsystem2.tar.gz

It created a directory called firefox. So, I suggest you open it in the /home/username of your directory.

I clicked on the desktop and selected "New Launcher".

I browsed to the firefox directory and selected firefox as the command.

I added the heading.

Next I clicked on the icon and browsed again to home and firefox and found the sub directory "icons". I chose the large icon and clicked ok.

Then I dragged the icon to my panel.

Next, I selected Tools from the menu bar and added a couple of themes.

The user experience is excellent.

It works very nice.

As far as the plugins go, I became root and created symbolic links from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins to the home/username/firefox/plugins directory.

(Don't try to link from the symbolic links).

You will also need to create a symbolic link from /usr/X11R6/lib/Acrobat5/Browsers/Intellinux/nppdf.so to your directory

and then one from /usr/lib/Realplayer8/rpnp.so

and /usr/lib/Realplayer8/raclass.zip

Your last symbolic link should be made from:

/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_04/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavap lugin_oji.so

I suggest you install Midnight Commander to navigate your command line:
