First if you want install Firefox , you need to remove the exceting Icewasel package " i thinik you can use atitude as well " hehe :p
apt-get remove icewase
then to do list add the following line your "/etc/apt/sources.list" file :
sudo geany /etc/apt/sources.list
and include this code
##FIREFOX INSTALL ! deb http://packages.linuxmint.com debian import
This will give you access to limited package in the import repo. Namely Firefox and Thunderbird
Now add the Mint keyring
wget http://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/main/l/linuxmint-keyring/linuxmint-keyring_2009.04.29_all.deb sudo dpkg -i linuxmint-keyring_2009.04.29_all.deb
then update and instal firefox
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install firefox
start firefox
alt+f2 firefox
Now your edit Openbox
Seting -> Openbox -> Gui menu editor
and change OpenBox to use "firefox" as the default browser system wide
if you press keyboard win+w " openbox failed to execute child process x-www-browser "
open terminal and paste
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/x-www-browser x-www-browser /usr/bin/firefox 10 should do the trick.
Make sure to change
/usr/bin/firefox
to whatever the path actually for me :p .
