Still readying PET for Firefox 3, I hope?!
Can someone provide a PET for Firefox 3 (not just an SFS) that fixes the dependency error issues? I am not technical and can not do this.
A PET installation for Firefox 3 seems easier for beginners like me and others and I believe would be greatly appreciated by many.
Thanks for any update information you can provide.

Noob,
Does clicking on browser load Firefox (does on my Puppy 4)?
Or look under menu and internet is firefox there?
If you can find pfind in the menu and use pfind to find where 'Firefox' is in the directory structure. Go there with Rox or the command line and start Firefox . . .
Here is the manual to remove those Noob oobs . . .

With all the firefox 3 pets, including this one and firefox 2 pets, they crash as soon as they start, without any indication of the error. However, downloading and running firefox straight from the mozilla site works perfectly, except for dodgy fonts and failure to find my existing bookmarks and cookies. Running Puppy 3.01.

With the lib/font fix included it runs great on puppy 4.0, no crashes, but I haven't tried flash yet. Since the missing libs were added, Really messed the pc up last time.tombh wrote:With all the firefox 3 pets, including this one and firefox 2 pets, they crash as soon as they start, without any indication of the error.

Steve, did you get round to making a SFS? I scanned the thread here but couldn't find it.stevenbinion wrote:Actually, I can release an sfs for firefox3. I'll get that posted here later today.shankargopal wrote:Hi
Any chance of an SFS like the one that stevebinion made earlier with FF3 beta 5 (has Java and Flash as part of it)? I use that SFS right now and it's great. Would love it if someone could make the same for FF3 Final. I would do it myself but time very very short right now...
Thanks
Hilary

Thanks which make me wonder. Does the IceCat have flash built in or does that one have to be added which is a to newbies difficult thing?
That they froze and only way to get it out of that state
was to do ctrl+alt+ <- backspace?
Maybe I should wait until we have stable versions for linux?
I mean my brain go haywaire when I look at adobes text
I can chose among these three ways.

I tried the pet the thread starter linked to and that one play youtube
but fail on playrapport.se which worked some days ago.
the flash plug in crasches on some pages. Simply shut down firefox.

Here are the missing gnome dependencies, I've also included all the symlinks that puppy didn't know where to look.
That was the needed fix. The only install that allowed me to look at
playrapport.se but as others have pointed out. The fix freezes FF
to that page and the only way to get out of it a complete reboot.
So how do we fix this?
when it freeze it doesn't help to try to stop FF in the manager either. Don't take clicks. Nothing happens. Only complete reboot works.
Puppy are in good company, none of the other small distros get
firefox doing flash for me.
Others talk about an alternativ name gnash short from "gnome flash"
Does that one work better for puppy then?

Hi. I've got Firefox 2.0.0.16 in my other distro (Zenwalk); can anyone tell me whether or not it's possible to copy it and its associated files over to Puppy and have it work there, thus upgrading my current, rather outdated version of Firefox (1.5.0.12)? It would save a lot of hassle with upgrading two sets of browsers, one for each distro, were this possible.
Thanks in advance,
Colonel Panic.
