I had the same experience. The 1.0 version does not do 1.5 upgrade. What I did was to install Firefox 1.5 (from source) into a subdirectory (not part of root partition) I own where I usually put my personal programs. ADVANTAGES: 1. I can upgrade my Firefox without need for root access. 2. I can upgrade my Mandriva Linux OS (even from scratch) without affecting my customizations for my personal Firefox. I can readily run my personal Firefox. Just sharing ... Arys ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
