devries Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Mandriva uses urpmi to install software (read the faqs on this board). A repository that has the latest firefox build is mcnl (see the tipas and tricks forum for a link). Flashget: try wget or kget (a frontend for wget included in KDE (start, internet, file transfer, kget) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twn_onizuka Posted August 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Hi the problem is, i am on dial-up ...applications are a pain to download through these updates, i had so many problems with yum and apt with FC, thats why i rather download rpms, makes it easier.... Can i please get a link for the latest firefox...in .rpm, cause i do not know what to do with .src.rpm files yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 http://www.mandrakeclub.nl/sources/officia...02mcnl.i586.rpm However you still might need to install other software. In linux most software is dependent on other software. It's hard to be bleeding edge with dial-up :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
