Firebird, Gentoo

-navairum- · 10-16-2003, 11:15 PM

Hello, i have Gentoo, and i just did "emerge firebird", the output says that it emerged properly, but now if i go into console and type "firebird" to run the program, it wont oopen. I have been trying to fix this for a few hours, and nothing seems to work. Its tough viewing pages with the stupid lynx browser.
anyhelp?
thanks in advance

actually you should do:
emerge mozilla-firebird
and to run it you do:
MozillaFirebird

try to do a serach before emerging anything

i did, all i want is the browser, not everything mozilla entails. i dont want the mail program and stuff, will that command jsut give me the browser?

yes mozilla firebird is a stand alone program the thing that you emerged its other prog you can safely unmerge it.
