Hi guys,
Thanks for all the help. I´ve tried a few things... First is re-installing Mozilla Firefox. Now, for a person like me, I followed these instructions on the release notes of v 1.5 on the mozilla site... which were: Extract the tarball in the directory where you want to install Firefox: tar -xzvf firefox-1.5.tar.gz This will create a firefox subdirectory of that directory. Done that! But how do I run firefox? I´ve installed it in usr/local... But I´ve no idea which file is the linux equivalent of the .exe file! There is one mozilla.bin file, but when I run that, nothing happens... double click and nothing happens... So, I need like really simple instructions on: 1. How to install the firefox files from the tar.gz file that I have downloades from mozilla.com 2. Create a desktop short cut for as well as some link on the GUI (mandrake 10.1) Thanks again for all your help! Sorry for being so duh! JJ |
Right click on desktop create new then link to application. From there click the Application tab and in work path add usr/local/firefox/firefox the rest you can leave empty. If you go back to the general tab you can name it and choose an icon then click ok that should put a icon on your desktop.

Hi!
I am very happy, my realplay didn't wan't to work, but today it's working!! Allbody will now ask me how ;) , yes I install the "mozplugger" package, this packge allw mozilla, firefox and netskape to access other application like realplay and PDF programs. When I installed this package i changed the "mozpluggerrc" file in the /etc directory to do the realplayer the standard player for files like rm ... because I have an other player called hxplay, BUT you can try to open media links before changing this file. ----------------------------------------- If it not work try to specefi the realplay path in the "mozpluggerrc" file eg: audio/vnd.rn-realvideo: rv: RealVideo file nokill stream: /usr/lib/RealPlayer/realplay "$file" nokill stream: hxplay "$file" -------------------------------------------------- You can too try with the following command to do the realplay working from eg. the consol: PATH=<your realplay path>:"${PATH}" ln -sf <your realplay path>realplay.bin /bin/realplay export HELIX_LIBS=<your realplay path> -------------------------------------------------------- here is some links that help me to find the solution: http://yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTu...lications.html http://fedoranews.org/tchung/realplayer/ For Mozilla/Firefox: http://yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTu...iguration.html For Netskape 4.7x: http://yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTu...Navigator.html ------------------------------------------------------ (NOTE: I have ubuntu 5.04 and I installed mozplugger with synaptic) I hope that is working for you :D Ask me gladly see if I can answer Have a nice time :) |
Hi guys,
I tried uninstalling and re-installing... I get this message when I try to install firefox: (this happens even when I´m logged on as root) [jacob@host-137-205-71-211 firefox]$ ./firefox ./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [jacob@host-137-205-71-211 firefox]$ Therefore, what do I do now? completely lost... and completely confused!! JJ |
try opening just firefox and not firefox-bin run as root first then normal user. If it still doesn't work then your in the wrong directory.
|
jacobjohn where did you install firefox. I have mine in /usr/local/firefox so I would in root "cd /usr/local/firefox" then "./firfox" to run the shell script in that directory.
|
Has JacobJohn just installed the source code?
