I have 3.0.4 on Ubuntu Intrepid and Kubuntu Hardy.  Both are working
fine.  The Unbuntu Intrepid version is installed and maintained via
apt, but the Kubuntu Hardy version is installed from the Mozilla site
in /opt.  I never install FF from the repos in Kubuntu, because the
dependencies bring in all of this gnome stuff that I don't want in
Kubuntu.  FF then manages its own updates.
