Install Firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu in 3 Easy Steps

Just downloaded and installed the latest Firefox, and I’m liking it. Definitely a bit faster and more responsive than Firefox 3.5…though not yet as snappy as Chrome from what I can tell. Note: this will REPLACE your existing FF 3.5 install. Here’s how to install it from the command line in Ubuntu Karmic:

First, open up a terminal, and then:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa

(adds the Mozilla repository to your sources)

sudo apt-get update

(updates your sources)

sudo apt-get install firefox-3.6

(downloads and installs the app. You’ find it in Applications > Internet > Namoroka Web Browser)
