Well, there's a problem in that the installer doesn't do things the same way 
the Mandrake (and presumably RedHat) RPMs do, so it doesn't exactly replace 
the underlying Mozilla libraries and such for the rest of the 
Mozilla-dependent browsers like Konq.  I don't really know if the are linked 
to the Mozilla libraries or if they have their own compiled versions, but the 
"new" Mozilla goes in it's own little directory and doesn't play with the 
rest of the system.

Seems to work ok, and loads much faster than 1.4 - which is still dog slow 
compared to anything else.
