Add applications-and updating

[victor.hatley]

Have everything up and running, but would like to know if I can update firefox-there are some add-ons I would like to have. Also wondering about running Open Office, Which version, etc. IF it will work. 1 last thing is about pausing aircrack, can this be done on extremely large dictionaries?

First, as to your Firefox question, you can go here:

SourceForge.net: ubuntuzilla

Which will allow you to install Firefox 3.6.

OpenOffice is in the repos (1:2.4.1 openoffice.org suite) Please be aware that it doesn't add icons for every option to the menu, you will need to manually add them or type "openoffice" from a cli to start it.

On to aircrack-ng, I don't know of a way to pause it, I see there is a ticket open to possibly add it to the version 1.1 when released

I know a way, but it requires BT4 to be installed on vmware, because you can pause and resume the virtual machine state. But you wouldn't be able to use CUDA capabilities and the processor speed wouldn't be at it's best. Either way, it would be a nice feature to be implemented to aircrack-ng.
