Re: Firefox for FBSD?
well, you could follow the instructions on the mozilla developer's pages for getting the source, configuring the source, and building the source. its what i do for a 4.10 laptop (1.8a6, dec 3rd build). i'm sort of lazy about having a browser on my 5.2.1 machine (1.7.2). one minor data point, building for less than the whole suite fails, and i don't care enough to find out why, since it is only cycles and disk, and i've plenty of both. my .mozconfig follows. use with care, it may contain iraqi weapons of mass distruction or ohio voting machine recalibration code, or otherwise fry something near and dear to you. or you could use the port, which some nice person maintains. # sh # Build configuration script # # See http://www.mozilla.org/build/unix.html for build instructions. # # Options for client.mk. mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=suite mk_add_options [EMAIL PROTECTED]@/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@ # Options for 'configure' (same as command-line options). ac_add_options --enable-application=suite geckoishly yours, eric ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Hi everyone,
Is there a Firefox version for Freebsd or must we use the one for Linux?
thanks,
Dimitris
Yes, its in the ports system (/usr/ports) under www/firefox
If you want the java plug-in I suggest you install that first, its under
/java/jdk14 read my notes before you
start, remember to mount linprocfs:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-newbies/2004-October/002551.html
Use this to test java (link in notes has typo):
http://weather.noaa.gov/radar/mosaic.loop/DS.p19r0/ar.us.conus.shtml
Also this topic was hashed a few days ago here ("Status of java support
in FreeBSD 5.x release?"), so look there if you need more help.
After you get java and firefox installed you might want flash and
acrobat plugins, for this install /www/linuxpluginwrapper
