Well, the question is *why*. There isn't a separate version for firefox or thunderbird. And why are they pointing out which gcc version it's compiled with? It makes me think it's the damn c++ issue and it's linked with something. In which case the 2.95 version won't work
I hate g++
from their site: LINUX users: * If your distribution is built with GCC 3.3 this version may not work for you. If it does, please let us know. If it does not, we are looking for someone to help us out by building it on a GCC 3.3 system. Please email feedback@nvu.com with your results. * To view an external URL (to browse an edited file or select one Help menu entry) with Mozilla Application Suite, install this executable script in your system, for instance in the directory where mozilla lives. Edit the MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME environment variable in that script to meet your system settings. Add the following lines to your prefs.js: user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/path/to/the_shell_script"); user_pref ("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "/path/to/the_shell_script"); user_pref ("network.protocol-handler.app.ftp", "/path/to/the_shell_script"); user_pref ("network.protocol-handler.app.file", "/path/to/the_shell_script"); For Mozilla Firebird, adjust that variable too and change the last line of the script to exec $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/MozillaFirebird $url * If you can't launch Mozilla after Nvu, it's because your Mozilla version is too old. You need a build made after 22-nov-2003. Just get a 1.6 from Mozilla.org if you don't want to try a nightly. Appears to be static for mozilla as I only have 1.6 and am not changin soon, but I can run nvu 4.0 w/o a problem and my mozilla will stall start/run. ??? Looks like they would *like* for you to build it w/gcc 3.3 for them <grin>. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/photos
