I've had 37 running on my system with fc14 using the mozilla download. Haven't seen any crashes. Was using the last version 26 that was installed by Fedora update, since it would do flash, but the newer one wouldn't?? Finally, was able to get the flash to work with the newer version, by chaning the /usr/bin/firebox. Just changed one thing in this script to get it to run the newer version, and it even handles the mozilla updates. < MOZ_DIST_BIN="/home/msetzerii/Download/firefox" --- > MOZ_DIST_BIN="$MOZ_LIB_DIR/firefox" > > > Jim Lewis > 512-797-3049 > http://jklewis.com <- my resume, Java games, and link to book are here. > No ads! > > -- > users mailing list > users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe or change subscription options: > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users > Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct > Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > Have a question?
