It is a fairly simple procedure and all you need to do is add the Mozilla beta repos to Zypper. Here is how:

Code:

$ zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/openSUSE_11.0 mozilla

then

Code:

$ zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla:/beta/openSUSE_11.0 MozillaBeta

Now that you have the beta repos, you can install:

Code:

$ zypper in MozillaFirefox31

To execute, make sure you close all open FireFox sessions then use firefox31 or find the new FireFox 3.1 menu item in your start menu.

Have their been any noticeable bugs with this method? Or has it all been the proverbial smooth sailing in terms of the operation?
