upgrading to Firefox 3.6

I downloaded Firefox 3.6 from Mozilla but it doesn't show up in the download directory. I have been experimenting with various things but without success. I am ignorant of how Xarchiver works. What is "adding"? When I try to open the downloaded file from its window that tells me it's been downloaded, it shows a long list of files in Firefox. Am I supposed to "add" these somehow? I tried and get no success. The download filename is firefox-3.6.10.tar.bz2. I haven't the slightest idea what all that means.

I just upgraded to Firefox 3.6, but now I have to upgrade tha Adobe Flash Player so:
Which version do I have to choose? (Yum-Linux; .tar.gz-Linux; .rpm-Linux; .deb- Ubuntu 8.04; Apt-Ubuntu 9.04)
How do I upgrade AFP?

 

linpus is based on fedora 8 (we're on 12 now i think) so put another O.S on is my suggestion but for now use the rpm file and if you're trying linux for the first time do this...

and then you can break it as many times as you like....

 

Thank you, Darryl.
I downloaded the rpm file, but appears this:
Error resolving dependencies. Unable to resolve dependencies for some packages selected for instalation
And in the details:
Missing Dependency: libnssutil3.so is needed by package flash-plugin
Do I have to choose another type of AFP to install? or What am I have to do?

 

google search turns this rpm up..

linpus is fedora 8 tho....
Best advice is check out some of my other posts and get a new os on a usb.
Luck to ya

Hello,

I attempted to upgrade my browser to Firefox 3, following the step by step guide laid out http://macles.blogspot.com/2008/07/inst ... e-one.html but I must have done something wrong as nothing happens when I try to launch the browser. I have tried to run the safemode option (firefox -safe-mode) but I got the following error: The command "firefox -safe-mode" failed to run: Failed to execute child process "firefox" (no such file or directory). Any idea, please? I wanted to upgrade to the latest version (Firefox 4) but my understanding was that I needed the 3 before installing the latest.

Thank you for your help.
