heather1113 Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 (edited) It depends on how you installed it, with an rpm or with the tar.gz if it's the latter then you'll find it in the folder that untarred, it will just say firefox. If it's the former (the rpm) then it's in usr/bin Edited February 18, 2005 by heather1113 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the former (the rpm) then it's in usr/bin <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've installed a tar.gz and it's in the folder that I untarred it to. There's a "script" named Firefox, but how do I get a shortcut on the startmenu? Thnx for your reply :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
