Flock is a free, open source web browser based on Firefox.

Flock is still in developmentm and will be officially released and added to the Ubuntu repositories in future.

For those who want to try Flock before then:

Install Flock

  • Download Flock page for Linux.
  • Right click the file, choose Extract Here
  • Right click the desktop, choose Create Launcher

For command, click Browser and chose the file called 'flock' in the folder you just extracted.

Install Flock (Multi-user Command line)

  • Download Flock page for Linux.
  • Change to the directory you downloaded it to, then extract Flock into /opt:
sudo tar -C /opt -xzvf flock-*.linux-i686.tar.gz
  • Optionally, you can test Flock from the command line:
/opt/flock/flock
  • Create link and menu:
sudo ln -s /opt/flock/flock /usr/bin/flock
sudoedit /usr/share/applications/Flock.desktop
  • Then enter or copy the following text and save the file:
[Desktop Entry]
Comment=Flock Web Browser
Exec=flock
GenericName=Flock Web Browser
Icon=/opt/flock/icons/mozicon128.png
Name=Flock
Path=
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=0
TerminalOptions=
Type=Application
X-KDE-SubstituteUID=false
X-KDE-Username=
  • Gnome users refresh panel:
killall gnome-panel
  • KDE users refresh kicker:
dcop kicker Panel configure


Enjoy Flock! :))

Removing Flock

This is untested but should work.

  • Remove the symbolic link
sudo rm /usr/bin/flock
  • Remove the menu option
sudo rm /usr/share/applications/Flock.desktop
  • Refresh gnome panel or kicker as shown above
  • Remove flock directory
sudo rm -rf /opt/flock

Giving Flock access to Firefox plugins

Note: If you do this, do not uninstall Firefox

  • Rename old Flock plugins directory
sudo mv /opt/flock/plugins /opt/flock/plugins.original
  • Link Flock plugins directory to Firefox plugins directory
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins /opt/flock/plugins

Other references

There is also a discussion of installing flock on the Ubuntu forums that is more directed at an individual user testing flock.
