I used Galeon a time or two but lost interest. Now when I try to run
it I get this error:

Ensure the "MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME" environment variable is set to the
correct Mozilla installation directory.

I don't know what this means. I have tried to set the variable in
/root , /bin and nothing seems to work. I am using Ubuntu 10.4
