The application and its settings are generally separate. Installing
Firefox 2 should just find your settings in .mozilla or .firefox
or .phoenix or whatever the directory is (depends on when you first
installed the product I guess).
I don't think there is a concept of firefox 2 "seeing" firefox 1.5. If
you remove firefox the application settings will still be there in he
directory named above. If you're worried then backup those directories
before upgrading.
How were you going to go to firefox 2? Binary from Mozilla.com or via
apt-get?
