Installing Mozilla Firefox on HP-UX

I’ve just found it is very easy to install the open source software based web browser, Mozilla Firefox on HP-UX; easier than installing in Solaris. Below is information on my system,

Machine: HP b2600 (PA-RISC)
Operating System: HP-UX 11i v1 (11.11)

The Modus Operand
————————–

  • Download GTK+ 2.6.8 and install, 
    [root:/tmp]# swinstall -s /tmp/gtk_26800_pa.depot
  • Download Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.4 and install, 
    [root:/tmp]# swinstall -s /tmp/ffox_2004_pa.depot
  • Verify Firefox installation, 
    [root:/tmp]# swlist | grep -i firefox
FIREFOX 2.0.0.4ar.00 Firefox for HP-UX

    Viewing the description,
    Swlist

  • Yeah, it’s execution time! 
    [root:/tmp]# /opt/firefox/bin/firefox

    marjan,
    Uishhh, mana ko tau orang HP guna Reflection X :D By the way, aku buat screenshot tu guna xwd; kemudian, dengan gigihnya aku convert raw output dia kepada format jpeg dengan menggunakan GIMP kat Linux machine.
