I can see the wisdom in that. Thanks for the tip. I always use Debian
packages, except for my video driver. I think I will have to add my
Firefox to that list as well. I'd prefer a QT based version of it, but
alas, I don't know of one that exists.
If I am not mistaken, there is a version of Swiftfox available as a
package, but I don't know if that is in sync with Firefox or not.
Google time.
Joe
