Tutorial of the Week

This week, we highlight a contribution by one of the biggest proponents of 64-bit Ubuntu on the forums: Kilz, who wrote the impressive "Howto Install 32 bit Firefox with Flash w/sound and Java for AMD64."

It's a thread that began almost two years ago, has received updates through four releases and has even been recently adjusted. It's unusual to see a tutorial receive so much attention, but when you read through it, it's clear that this is a labor of love. If you use 64-bit Ubuntu and want to get a fully functional Firefox, Kilz has made it easy for you. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202537

See you in a week!

A reminder: K.Mandla, one of the moderators on ubuntuforums, is the driving force behind the "Tutorial of the Week" project. If you wish to suggest a tutorial, you are welcome to do so here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4941270
