Debian Lenny iBook G3

[WackyRicanMan]

Hey I'm new to this but I have an ibook g3 dual usb.. 600mhz/640mb/80gb

I just installed Debian Lenny as the only OS on it.. so far so good... didnt have sound but just figured that out... i installed opera web browser on it.. I rebooted and when I try to open iceweasel it says starting iceweasel then nothing happens. I try to open epiphany web browser and says mozilla failed to initialize or something like that.. I removed iceweasel and re installed it and im still getting the same problem. Any suggestions?

~$ sudo xulrunner-1.9 --register-global

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System

#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.

I put in my password and it says ^

oh ok is because you dont have privileges then you need to login as root
type su ($ <- thats ur prompt)

$ su 
type root's password
(your prompt is gonna change from $ to #)
# xulrunner-1.9 --register-global

to have privileges you need to do this
in terminal type su

$ su
type root's password
then type visudo
# visudo
is gonna open something like this

# /etc/sudoers
#
# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
#
# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.
#
Defaults
env_reset
# Host alias specification
# User alias specification
# Cmnd alias specification
# User privilege specification
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
user ALL=(ALL) ALL
# Uncomment to allow members of group sudo to not need a password

so just add below root ALL=(ALL) ALL
user ALL=(ALL) ALL
(change user for your user)
save ctrl + o
and exit ctrl + x
next time you run a command with sudo is gonna ask you for your password and you are good to go

I did this and saved and exit then did what you wanted earlier... still says command not found.
