I'm looking for a decent web browser for my eabi Zaurus. I have discovered so far:
iceweasel tries to start, consumes tons of ram, then dies without ever displaying anything. Repeatable.
iceape does the same, as does icedove.
galeon looks really cool, but when I try to connect to either my bank site or to this forum, or the NYT site, it will get only so far, then it chokes and hangs. With the bank it never displays their window (which, to be fair, is bloated with ads and graphics). On this forum I can read post titles, but it hangs when I try actually read a post. Some sites load, others just don't.
epiphany -- same as galeon but the opening graphics aren't as cool.
dillo -- fast, but will not handle my bank site, and doesn't display graphics at all well. Does work on NYT though
minimo (from the angstrom feed, not from debian -- unpacked data.tar.gz directly) works the best. Displays graphics, allows me to connect to my bank. Interface is a bit pda-ish, though, and I can't get it to work as a default browser -- that is, it can't process links clicked from an e-mail message if I set it to be root. minimo starts, but does not load the page. It also won't work like "minimo
http://my.site" again, the program starts, but does not load the page.
chimera2 -- fastest of the bunch on the desktop (this is an Xt app, so very lightweight). It seems able to handle the NYT, but not my bank. Haven't tried it here. Trying it now. Kind of low-tech, doesn't really log me in. But it doesn't run at all on the Z; complains about missing default font and dies.
I haven't tried konquerer. galeon demanded that I load the rest of gnome in order to run (which of course changed my default wm to gnome as well, which brings everything to a near halt). I don't want to repeat that with KDE as well unless konquerer is really worth it.
So, is there anything else out there? No, lynx will not suffice, nor will something made to run inside emacs.
