Steve test the flash first, I had it running but it slowed down my pc dramatically, I feel that Firefox 3.0 is missing too many dependencies. It makes your system unstable when you add flash to it. ttuuxxx _________________ http://audio.online-convert.com/ <-- excellent site http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/A-codecs/ <-- Codec Test Files http://html5games.com/ <-- excellent HTML5 games

Firefox usually has the sources code available, So the best Idea would be finding it for 3.0 and compiling it without gnome support, That would probably fix it, I'm working 12hrs today, gone 14hrs so I don't have time, but anyone else is more than welcome to do it. Have fun ttuuxxx _________________ http://audio.online-convert.com/ <-- excellent site http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/A-codecs/ <-- Codec Test Files http://html5games.com/ <-- excellent HTML5 games

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. |

Here are the missing gnome dependencies, I've also included all the symlinks that puppy didn't know where to look.  2.73 Mb.
Below are the included files in this fix.

I'm having a small issue installing this. I downloaded the Firefox-30.pet file and opened it. It said it installed, but I can't tell that anything's been changed, even after restarting the computer (Can't you tell I'm a total Puppy noob?? ) Um... so what should I do? |

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 . . . http://puppylinux.org/manual

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.

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. ttuuxxx _________________ http://audio.online-convert.com/ <-- excellent site http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/A-codecs/ <-- Codec Test Files http://html5games.com/ <-- excellent HTML5 games

I guess those missing libs are compiled for Puppy 4? _________________ Colour-Memories Database |

Steve, did you get round to making a SFS? I scanned the thread here but couldn't find it. Thanks Hilary |
