You should install `lynx` with `sudo apt install lynx` a command line browser for linux. – Akib Azmain Turja May 26 '20 at 07:00

@AkibAzmain Why install `lynx` when you want to use firefox? That makes absolutely no sense to me. – Soren A May 26 '20 at 07:28

What is the reason you are running Firefox on the remote computer? Did you consider using socks proxy over ssh? See: https://askubuntu.com/questions/469582/how-do-i-set-up-a-local-socks-proxy-that-tunnels-traffic-through-ssh – FedKad May 26 '20 at 07:28

To start with, which Linux distro have you installed (Ubuntu server, Ubuntu desktop, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Ubuntu MATE, Mint, et al.), & which release number? Different releases have different tools for us to recommend. Please click [edit] & add that to your question, so all facts we need are in the question. Please don't use Add Comment, since that's our one-way channel to you. All facts about your PC should go in the Question with [edit] as this is a Q&A site, not a general forum, so things work differently here. – K7AAY May 26 '20 at 17:01
