Running Firefox


Hi,

I just installed SUSE Pro 9.1 as a simple Apache webserver, No GUI. I also selected the Firefox option in YaST as well.

How do I start browsing the web using Firefox? When I type # firefox I get the following:

DISPLAY empty or unusable
DISPLAY=

Thanks for all of your help!

If you can login to something like twm or fluxbox, the just run "firefox &" from a terminal emulator.
