Hi guru of OpenSolaris
Recently I want to upgrade the version of browzer, I have the Mozilla / Firefox 
3.1 Beta (default version that come with OpenSolaris:
The procedure that I will use appear in the following link:
http://www.sunfreeware.com/README.firefox3

In base a that procedure, I do the following
Installation:
-------------
* Tarball format

Extract the tarball to a proper location[1]
$ bzip2 -dc <tarball basename>.tar.bz2 | tar -xf -
bzip2 -dc firefox-3.6.3.en-US.opensolaris-i386-pkg.bz2 | tar -xf -

[1]: Make sure there is no firefox directory there before you 
extract the tarball, it's not recommended to just overwrite the old 
firefox directory.

* Pkgadd format

1, First uncompress the zip file
$ bzip2 -d <zip file basename>.bz2
 bzip2 -d firefox-3.6.3.en-US.opensolaris-i386-pkg.bz2
You will get a package datastream file named <zip file basename>

2, Install the package as root
# pkgadd -d ./<zip file basename>
pkgadd -d ./firefox-3.6.3.en-US.opensolaris-i386-pkg
The default install location would be /opt/sfw/lib/firefox


To Enable Java:
---------------
cd /path/to/<install location>/plugins
cd /path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/plugins
ln -s /path/to/<java plugin install location>/libjavaplugin_oji.so 
ln -s /path/to/usr/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so

On OpenSolaris/Solaris 10, Java plugin is probably located at 
/usr/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so


To Enable Flash/Shockwave:
--------------------------
1, Download the Flash/Shockwave plugin from
http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&P2_Platform=Intel&P3_Browser_Version=Netscape4&P5_Language=English

2, Extract the tarball and place the files under
/path/to/<install location>/plugins
/path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/plugins
bzip2 -dc <tarball basename>.tar.bz2 | tar -xf -
bzip2 -dc flash_player_10_solaris_x86.tar.bz2 | tar -xf -


To Run The Application:
-----------------------
a, Execute the application by specifying the absolute path 
$ /path/to/<install location>/firefox
/path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/firefox

b, Add <install location> to your PATH and execute "firefox"
export PATH=/usr/gnu/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:
export PATH=/opt/sfw/lib/firefox:$PATH


c, Add the desktop file and start from menu(pkgadd format only)
# cat >/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop<<EOF
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=Application
Exec=/path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/firefox
TryExec=/path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/firefox

X-GNOME-DocPath=
Terminal=false

GenericName=firefox

EOF

The upgrade is ok, but the problem occur/happen when I reboot mi PC
before the upgrade the opensolaris provide me two forms to access to browser of 
Firefox
Applications--->Internet --->Firefox
and in the top of the Screen Between Personal directory and Packeted Manager 
was a Icon
In this moment I don't have this icon
I enter to browser by Command line, online writing
export PATH=/opt/sfw/lib/firefox:$PATH
after that I write firefox and appear the browser,
In the terminal appear the folling message:
and...@opensolaris:~$ export PATH=/opt/sfw/lib/firefox:$PATH
and...@opensolaris:~$ firefox
and...@opensolaris:~$ firefox
