Re: Does anyone know of a Swiftweasel How To?
The easiest way to install Swiftfox or Swiftweasel, is to simply use your package manager as usual.
1. Open a gnome-termnial and type:
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
2. Copy and paste the following into the end of the file:
## Swiftfox builds for Debian/Ubuntu
deb http://getswiftfox.com/builds/debian unstable non-free
## Swiftweasel builds for Ubuntu (replace "jaunty" with your distribution!)
deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/swiftweasel jaunty multiverse
3. Save the file
4. Open Synaptic (or whatever package manager you prefer) and refresh the list of available packages (i.e., click 'Refresh' or 'Reload' button.)
5. Search on keyword Swiftfox or Iceweasel and then select the build for your particular architecture.
Alternately, you can go directly to this site and grab the Swiftfox DEB for your system directly, which you can install manually with gdebi.

Good luck!
