Here is the link: http://dag.wieers.com/packages/firefox/firefox-0.10.1-0.1.1.fc2.test.i386.rpm Since you are using the Mozilla installer copy the following into the file /usr/share/applications/mozilla-firefox.desktop [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Firefox Web Browser GenericName=Web Browser Comment=Browse the Web Exec=firefox Icon=firefox.png Terminal=false Type=Application MimeType=text/html;text/xml;application/xhtml+xml;application/vnd.mozilla.xul+xml;text/mml; X-Desktop-File-Install-Version=0.9 Categories=Network;Application;X-Fedora; The data is from an FC3 install. The only difference will be that X-Desktop-File-Install-Version will have a value less than 0.9 in FC2. If you need info for browser plugins go to http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux.html -- Kam Leo
