I typed mozilla-firebird at a console window and it said command not found. I did a search for mozilla and it found it in /usr/portage/net-www/mozilla/files/ I tried running the mozilla and mozilla.sh scripts but nothing happened. How do you start it?

Code:
# mozillafirebird

Also, remeber to
Code:
# updatedb
prior to running a search, since that will be the latest cache for slocate to look through.

Thanks, oubipaws. Sorry about the post I know it was kinda lame. I don't know why I didn't think to capitalize the name of the program.


Later.

I apologize for the earlier capitalization error. That is why I always have to type it twice when I am away from my system.

I always setup a menu item and an icon for my wife; so, at my system, I never am typing it.
