Well, here's an update on Firefox 5 for Knoppix 6.7:
After you've used 6.7 for a little while with IceWeasel as your
browser, Firefox 5 will invite you to download & install Firefox 5.0.1
from a tar.bz2 file. I did so. My downloaded Firefox 5.0.1 does
not have the Ubuntu Unity problem of holding the preferences.
Has its own flash, already. Only initial problem I see is figuring how
to integrate this on the LXDE desktop. At first, it is started via a
command line.
I moved my download to /usr/local and unzipped it with tar -xjf there.
To start it, make sure IceWeasel's not running and enter the command
/usr/local/firefox/firefox.
So, I guess the DistroWatch table is correct as it stands.
I'll run with both browsers for a while to see if FF5 is worth changing
from IceWeasel.
