Correction,
“I have tried, in two different OpenSuse 11.1 (64 bit) and in both get the same error.”
Thanks
I added the repository using yast (Software repositories -> Add -> Comunity…) and there was no update at first. Then I changed the repo priority from 99 (default) to 15 (that is: I give a higher priority to mozilla repository), went to Install/uninstall software -> Package -> All packages -> Update if newer version is available and now I’m using 3.5 without problems.
Thanks RGB, I did what you said and now I’m using Firefox 3.5 perfectly.
