If your going install it.. install the nightly build, I believe those are optified. The beta linked on their page isn't the latest.

Does that mean Firefox entered the "fixed in fremantle" club?
UPDATE: hmm when we download it does say "N900 and N810"... At least for now!

Here's the latest with xulrunner 1.9.2:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.o...1.9.2/?C=M;O=D

Grab the xulrunner and fennec .deb files and install them with dpkg. For example the latest builds as of today (using wget to download--you can use whatever):

Code:

wget \
 http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-mobile-1.9.2/xulrunner_1.9.2b6pre-20091229010603_armel.deb

wget \
 http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-mobile-1.9.2/fennec_1.0b6pre_armel.deb

Then install thusly:

Code:

sudo gainroot

dpkg -i fennec_1.0b6pre_armel.deb \
 xulrunner_1.9.2b6pre-20091229010603_armel.deb

OR, you can grab the super dooper latest one based on "trunk" which is even more alpha. It is available here:

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.o...trunk/?C=M;O=D

There grab the *_armel.deb of xulrunner and fennec as well, and install similar to above with dpkg.

Note: I am downloading these files now, I haven't installed or tested them yet.

Ok, I downloaded and installed the latest-trunk. It puts things in /opt, so it doesn't fill up space on the NAND. It looks cute. It will be a nice complement to microb and midori.
