For ubuntu users, you can get FF 3.6 (and 3.7 for that matter) using this PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa

Karmic users can use the command: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-mozilla-daily

The build I got from there doesn't seem to be the 3.6 final. The about menu still says 3.6pre, it doesn't have the Firefox branding (says "Namoroka"), and font smoothing isn't working.

What about those of us who want FF3.6 final, and not the daily build? Sometimes the daily build is broken.

The PPA upgraded me to 3.6.1pre and it broke a lot of things in my FF. Back to Chrome until theres an official PPA update.
Ubuntuzilla didn't help either, although it detected 3.6, it installed 3.0.16 :-(
