Firefox is pretty easy. If this is your own Home machine, just make a 'firefox' subdirectory in your 'Home' directory, move the *.tar.gz file to that directory, then open a command console, and cd to the firefox directory, and: $ tar -xvzf [name-of-file.tar.gz] This will unzip everything, and basically, you are done. Then create an icon to an application on your Desktop, pointing to 'firefox'. When you click the icon on your Desktop, Firefox should run. -- -wittig http://www.robertwittig.com/ . http://robertwittig.net/ To unsubscribe from this list, please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] & you will be removed.
