How about try Remi's package? Updates 3.6 FF. If I understood, FF4
is not coming for FC14? So that solves problem ?

So interesting data. I did download from Mozilla.org and the tar ball
has execute permissions when I list it. That was silly to not check the
tar ball.
I will unpack again and check it. My umask appears to be set properly.

Actually, after being bugged when I opened firefox-3.6-17 to download
firefox4 , I did it. I got access to a video to show how it worked. But
the video showed a version of firefox4 that was different than the one
I downloaded. For example it had a tab labeled firefox in the upper left
corner and a star on the right side. The version downloaded did not.
So I suspect we won't see all the functionality that should be there.

The Firefox team decided to keep the UI consistent to the OS, instead of
consistent to itself. In other words, Linux flavor of Firefox doesn't
look exactly like same version on Windows.
The video simply shows the lowest common denominator, which is Windows.

IIRC, hiding the 'menu bar' gives you the 'Firefox menu' .

If you want the "tab" in the upper left all you have to do is:
Got to "View--->Toolbars" and un-check "Menu Bar"

I have been meaning to ask this for a while, I used the tarball when I
was using Minefield (FF nightlies). After FF4 was released I wanted to
switch to a yum repo and I found two options:
- Tom "spot" Callaway's repo on fedorapeople
- Remi's repo
Spot's repo was recommended on the Fedora wiki so I went with that. Is
there any preference among the two? I don't recall receiving any updates
from that repo. So I was wondering which is more up to date? Or has
there been no updates to firefox4 since its release?

Yes, but it still won't look quite the same as Windows version. But you
won't hear me complaining. After getting over the same confusion Aaron
had, I decided that was the right design choice after all.

I accept that that but doing that makes it harder for Linux users to see
how the new features work. What is even stranger the look (and possibily
of functionality) seems the same as firefox-3.6-17.
