Firefox 4 beta for maemo
 

Is anyone else a little annoyed that the new Firefox 4 beta for maemo, is only for fremantle. I shouldn't be surprised, but I am frustrated. Our Fennec is a joke. And don't tell me it's because of the legacy devices, Opera runs just fine on maemo 4. Give me better fennec, or give me the firefox 4 beta. I guess I just expected more from mozilla. :/

On my old n810, fennec requires updates of many packages, but sadly these updates are not automatically provided anymore. Is there an easy way to update n810?

I have tried installing the Firefox 4 beta but the installed software details read 'Installed version:1.1' and 'Size: 32.9MB'. Is this the beta version? Am not very technical and need some guidance.

I first did an uninstall and then followed the link to download Firefox 4 beta. I still find the browser a bit cranky and still prefer MicroB.

Likewise for me. :mad:

Did this install on your n810? Mine won't install, looking for missing dependencies. As I understand, this is for n900, not the n8x0. Please tell me I am missing something.

EDIT: Ok so attempting that deb, I now see it is a chinook release. (which should work on OS2008 right?). Problem is the dependencies are not anywhere to be found. Anyone know where I can find them? And if you want to know what it's dependencies are, if you can tell me how to copy the list from application manager I will post them.

perhaps adding the chinook repos help?

never mind, this is probably fremantle only. among other things it wants is glib 2.20.0 or higher. If it was for chinook then diablo would by definition have satsfied that.

just to be sure we've covered all bases, how would I go about enabling chinook repos?
