... and it took exactly 23 mins to finish the compiling process on my 2.13 Ghz/2 GB RAM Centrino. I was all impatient while it was compiling (Can't imagine running Gentoo myself). I just realized that it is already available in Unstable (http://www.archlinux.org/packages/14812/) :). Anyone willing to grab?

I compiled it months ago, might try beta3, but tbh firefox2 works fine for me.

Really?! I can't imagine FF2 working fine for anybody :P
(sorry I couldn't resist :P)

I re-compiled the beta2 from the AUR. I don't seem to be having any problems. (Minefield beta2) . I'm using the x86_64 version. Tell us a little bit about how you're having problems and I'm sure one (some) of us can help.

I don't know if you're talking to me, but I meant Firefox 2, not Firefox 3 beta2.
The latest beta is quite an improvement anyway.
