Installing Software in Linux

find out your distribution. Then try to install the software by means of your distribution. If that is not possible, you will have to download the software from the internet and build it.

For example, if you want to install firefox, this is how you install it:

SuSE:


yast2 -i firefox

Fedora:


yum install firefox

Debian, KUbuntu, Ubuntu:


apt-get install firefox

Gentoo:


emerge firefox

paludis -i firefox
