cd to the directory where you uncompressed the files.
then type
Code:

./run-mozilla.sh

Better use this
Code:

./firefox
or just click the 'firefox' script.

( run-mozilla.sh cannot start firefox.)

First off, you should not be running Firefox as root. It is unnecessary and dangerous and will cause problems with the location of your user profile.

Have you installed the libpango package?
cheers,

'libpangocairo-1.0.so.0' is provided by
the package 'evolution28-pango' , probably
already installed.
( One of 5 evolution28-xxx in /usr/evolution28/.)
.....

Other requirements

1)
glib-2.12.12 :
ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ftp.slac...source/l/glib/
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/glib212 &&
make && make install
.....
2)
dbus-1.1.2
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Soft...ReleaseArchive
http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases...s-1.1.2.tar.gz
export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="${stagedir}/usr/local/glib212/lib/pkgconfig"
./configure --enable-doxygen-docs=no
&& make && make install
.....
3)
dbus-glib-0.73
http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus-glib/
cd /usr/local/glib212/lib/pkgconfig/
# ln -s /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/dbus-1.pc
export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="${stagedir}/usr/local/glib212/lib/pkgconfig"
./configure --enable-doxygen-docs=no && make
# make install
.....
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/evolution28/lib:/usr/local/lib
... and run ' ./firefox '.
.....
Be aware, that the 'export ..' commands are temporary :
the path will last till the terminal is closed.
.....
The much easier way :
# yum install firefox
The version is 3.0.10
