Firefox 3.5 for Solaris!

July 10, 2009

These are the direct links for downloading Firefox 3.5 for Solaris:

Version x86 SPARC
Firefox 3.5 OpenSolaris pkg  |  tar pkg  |  tar
Firefox 3.5 Solaris 10 pkg  |  tar pkg  |  tar

You can still find the links to the latest Firefox 2 version (2.0.0.20) in this blog entry, and to Firefox 3.0 in this blog entry.

If you are visiting the Mozilla web site from a Solaris system, your system will be automatically detected, and you can a see link which shows "Download Firefox – Free" and "3.5 for SunOS". That link directs you to the Mozilla development page on OpenSolaris.org. Unfortunately, the Solaris versions are not yet mentioned on the "Other Systems and Languages" web page (actually, that’s why I am maintaining the Firefox for Solaris links in my blog), but who knows – maybe we’ll see it there in a while.

Firefox 3 for Solaris – latest versions as of June 2009

July 10, 2009

These are the direct links for downloading the latest versions of Firefox 3 for Solaris:

Version x86 SPARC
Firefox 3.0.11 OpenSolaris pkg  |  tar pkg  |  tar
Firefox 3.0.11 Solaris 10 pkg  |  tar pkg  |  tar

You can still find the links to the latest Firefox 2 version (2.0.0.20) in this blog entry.

If you would like to install multiple versions of Firefox on your Solaris system, you can use the tarballs or my script for renaming a Firefox package.

Oh – and if you are running Solaris or OpenSolaris on x86, I suggest to install the recently released Adobe Reader 9.1 for Solaris x86!
