Firefox3 Bash Command

This could quite possible be the most simple question asked here, but googling gave me no answers.

I've installed firefox3 from the unstable repository, but I don't know the command to run it, both "firefox" and "firefox3" come up with a bash command not found error.

My arch experience is slowly coming together

Looks like firefox3 is installed in /opt so you probably need to logout/login to get this in your path.  Otherwise you can launch it with "/opt/mozilla/bin/firefox3".

Re: Firefox3 Bash Command

Every time you install something and are not sure where it went you can do a

pacman -Ql <package_name>

That will list all the files of the installed package.

As Allan said, I think firefox resides somewhere in /opt so you should logout/login. The executable could be named firefox3-bin
