And I am still in the process of ‘moving in’. Today, I got fed up with not having the Google Toolbar installed; must have the spellchecker. I went to install the thing, completely oblivious that I do not have Firefox. I have Iceweasel. Due to some sort of trademark issues, Debian uses Iceweasel instead of Firefox, so, you have to do some minor alterations to your Iceweasel settings before installing the toolbar. It’s a piece of cake.

  1. Open a new tab and type about:config in the address bar.
  2. In the filter box at the top of the page enter useragent.
  3. Double click on general.useragent.extra.firefox, change Iceweasel to Firefox and click OK.

Now you will be able to install the toolbar. Thanks to Crazy Squirrel.
