hey all,

Im very new to Linux and KDE. When I installed Kubuntu, i ve seen that it doesn't have Firefox but has Konqueror. But i would like to use Firefox as my default web browser. But when i try to add it through Adept Installer, it seems it also installs Gnome. but i just want to istall Firefox. is there anyone who can help me? thanks in advance

At konsole, type:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install firefox

Use

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install firefox

if you do not want to install the Gnome deps.

Thanks a lot, i did already...

If you want to integrate Firefox better in KDE then you might find this thread useful:

what is most relevant is what Linux distribution and what version of it are you using?

when you ran the suggested "fix" what exact command did you run and was there any error messages?

did you try using using the supplied package manager (might be Muon)?

yeah i had finally installed firefox apk

I also download and intall but i have also this problem .But its automatically was solved from internet when i asked to solve this problem online..I think you should also try ..
