People seem to be having luck just downloading the precompiled Linux i686
version distributed from:


http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/

dl to your home directory (~/)
untar the file and run the firefox script in the firefox directory which is
created when you untar it.

tar xvfz firefox-1.5b2.tar.gz

cd firefox
./firefox

My Ubuntu box is PPC so I can't test it for you at the moment but if it
doesn't work let me know.
