Firefox 3.0 Beta 2 Runs as a 32-bit App on x86_64 Linux December 20th, 2007 This is great news! I wanted to try the latest beta of Firefox 3 - Beta 2 as I’ve been reading pretty nice things about it. So I go to get the source to compile it on my Fedora Core 5 x86_64 box and realize that I’m missing cairo-gtk, and don’t feel like tracking it down right now. The reason I built 2.0.x from scratch was that the tarball of firefox 2.0.x for linux simply didn’t run on my x86_64 box in 32-bit more.
