how to install firefox 3.6.15
I have a scond hand eee 701 4g pc which I think has the original xandros o/s. At the moment I havefirefox 2 installed and wish to upgrade. I have dowloaded firefox 3.6 15 to my home file but am unable to install. I have tried yurenju's method but get the message - no such file or directory. I would really appreciate some vey simply explained help. Oldie.

Xandros is a discontinued distribution that was last released in 2007. I would strongly recommend to install a recent distribution, so that you get bugfixes and security updates. Almost all new distributions come with a recent Firefox pre-installed. If not it is easily installable.
I would consider to try Puppy Linux on this machine. |
why not try a full and lightweight distro, like http://crunchbanglinux.org/
|
download, extract, create a desktop shortcut to launch it. Nothing to install.
Although why not try Firefox 4.0 or as others have already suggested a newer distro. Debian, Crunchbang or antix will fit and run just fine on that model. |
Unless you replace the OS, you're stuck with Firefox 2.
See this post of mine in another thread where someone asked the same question http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ml#post4261789 |
