Re: [Staffslug] 101 uses for Linux...
it's a tarball gzipped source file, there aren't any mandriva rpms on
rpmfind, i don't know much about mandrake other than it has it's own
updater, perhaps you can try that - i hear it's similar to apt

Kevan,
Hi, hope you had a good easter. I've just noticed that my Mandriva distro
has an ancient version of Firefox. I have downloaded the current version and
it is now sitting in my desktop. It's not an rpm package (I don't think) how
do I install it? The instructions say 'Extract the tarball in the directory
where you want to install firefox: tar -xsvf firefox-1.5.0.2.tar.gz'
This will create a firefox subdirectory of that directory.
??????????????
