With Thomas' change back in place, log out, log in, and then see what
the "whereis" command tells you about where Firefox is being found by
typing:
whereis firefox
The command:
which firefox
command can be informative sometimes, as well. Look to see if your
personal ".profile" or ".bash_profile" contains a path that leads to
the
alternate (older) firefox executable.
Thanks, but this is no longer nessacary. After I changed the syslink
it worked great. And to me, this seems to be the 'proper' method. All
new users on the machine will get 1.5 when they command 'firefox'- no
hacks.
