HELP!! upgrading Firefox in Linux Linpus

Comments

  • Would also work fine, but Puppy (in my experience anyway) is that bit more complicated to update and install programs on, down to it's reliance on .pup packages. (OK, it can use others, but it's a pain)

    Actually, the latest versions of Puppy are a lot happier working with packages for other distros. It's only been a couple of months that the Puppy Package Manager has offered this extra functionality, but it seems to have taken off.
    Not used xpud, as I'm not a Firefox user and have no desire for an OS based around it

    Fair enough.

    I can't remember which version I have on my USB stick. I think it's 4.2. But I rarely use it for a proper OS environment, normally just testing things out.

    If I tell you who I work for, I'm not allowed to help you. If I don't say, then I can help you with questions and fixing products. Regardless, there's still no secret EU law.
