New frugal and save file of 219. Set up wireless then XORG Hi for the ATI card. Then started to download Firefox via quick pet, download proceeded about halfway, then error. Confirmed internet connect, retried Firefox, goes to error message. Just to validate, also downloaded Sea Monkey (without issue) and went back to download Firefox ... no joy, just the error message.
Is the Firefox pet being updated? or maybe something amiss on the ibiblio server?

No problems here,downloaded from ibiblio and installed in one try. Maybe just a temporary glitch?

James C, you were right on track, I rebooted, but no joy, BUT once I deleted the partial Firefox .pet in /tmp alll way well again.James C wrote:If you haven't rebooted or shut down, you might want to check in the download location to make sure there are no leftovers from the prior download attempts.Might not be necessary but can't hurt to check.
