installing mozilla in KDE?


How do I install Mozilla under kde, or can I install it in KDE?

the error I receive trying to run the installer is this:
---------------------
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified


Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0
---------------------

what on earth does that mean?

thanks.

you're running it as root right? so run "xhost +localhost" then you should be able to connect to it no problem
