Adept Manager only shows Konqueror and it is greyed out ... can I conclude that installation was incomplete ? Should I make a new disc and re-try Kubuntu installation ? My computer is now partitioned 50/50 with Vista and Kubuntu. Will the NEW Kubuntu disc replace the first disc's data or will it now create a third partition ?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21051225 Wed, 03 Sep 2008 14:07:24 EDT Re: Linux beginner can't browse via Konqueror http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21050845 anon : "Synaptic" doesn't show up in a search.

I have never been able to get Konqueror to work. Is there something I need to set ? Is there a place to check ?

Can I download Firefox (need location please) to a disc via Windows and then enter Linux Kubuntu to install Firefox Browser ?
Just install firefox via Synaptic. Actually, does FF not get installed by default on Kubuntu? If you can install via synaptic then your internet is set up fine.
