This is because both the stable (for your Ubuntu release), and 3.5 are now both installed. One way to fix it for all users on your system is to change the "symlink" for firefox: /usr/bin/firefox is currently pointing (like a shortcut) to /usr/bin/firefox-3.0 To change this to 3.5: $ sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/firefox-3.5 /usr/bin/firefox (on the command line) If you want to change it back: $ sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/firefox-3.0 /usr/bin/firefox Hope this helps.
