Hi community,
I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 natty 64bit with the integrated Firefox 4.0 beta
Firefox 4.0 is not yet stable as beta and has lots of bugs when I open mainly Java applications in the web.Usually it freeze and even mess with Ubuntu gnome panel.
It seems I cannot find any PPA related with Firefox beta updates in my Software source .
