firefox 2+ "stupid me"
I downloaded Firefox fox Linux and had some trouble
installing it.
------------------------------------------------
I had to find the right version of pango
for linux woody/oldstable. from debians wed site.
and i allso needed all of the dependencies
once i had all the the dependencies inthe same download directory
i installed them with
DPKG. from terminal:
" sudo dpkg -i *.deb "
------------------------------------------------
dpkg spit out some errors but everything worked so so what.
Firefox works again and so dose Iceweasel.
Before i was usen some old crappy version of firefox the did not won't
to work with linux flash9.
so i was still using flash7 for linux.
but i had flash9 working with iceweasel until synaptic screwed up
my system.
i hate synaptic it's apiece of crap. Synaptic allways screws up my system .
I will keep using DPKG instead.
--------------------------------------------------
Any way everything is working again the way they should
thanks to the terminal and DPKG.
I burned a back up copy of the programs and dependencies
so next time some scews up it will be a quick fix.
My computer is a slow as toaster but everything is working.
until i screw something else up.
