Please explain to me why Firefox is so much better than standard old Mozilla?

I do not get it.

dont like mozilla its big and clucky and basically just netscape anyway. firefox is thier own fully programed from the ground up one. smaller, quicker, cleaner looking. and once it gets to 1.0, mozilla will no longer exist anyway, it'll be replaced by firefox.

Mozilla will be still going once Firefox reaches 1.0 with a beta 1.0b version being planned about early July(hopefully not rushed like 0.9). Firefox 0.9 is based on Mozilla 1.7 branch and so will be Firefox 1.0. While Mozilla will have 1.8 and maybe early 1.9 at same time. http://www.mozilla.org/roadmap.html

For SuSE 9.1 Personal 9.1 besides the FTP install option, you now can get the .iso version though this does not come with most of the software(The .iso offering was a big surprise). It is even lacking the GCC libraries and the make package though. you will have to add/update online as needed after install. It fills up a 700MB cd heh.

as ftp.suse.com can be slooooooooowww.

Anyways... I just reinstalled SuSE 9.1 by FTP install (six hours ago) rather than by the new Suse Personal 9.1 .iso I did reinstall becasue the first install on early last sunday was not 100% properly done to begin with and then Gnome got borked a day ago(even though I like KDE better) for example. I tried repair, didn't help before reinstall.

The MX500 middle button/scroll wheel, cruise up+down, left and right buttons works fine as should on all programs and I've yet to remap the buttons to try forb the back/forward buttons.

Firefox was a breeze to install (non-installer version)Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040615 Firefox/0.9 .. unless I use a unofficial build there are not really any new builds at moment.

I have it set as " intelliMouse Explorer (USB) " , the scroll wheel didn't work untill after a restart.


In Mozilla or Firefox on linux, if you want to close tabs by middle clicking then type about:config in location bar and set middlemouse.contentLoadURL to false
