Yes, Mozilla looks pretty good on my partner's PC running Linux,
but I've had pretty much no luck at all on PPC.  The version I
compiled myself (from the -1 Debian source) was so slow as to be
unusable, and the binary packages I downloaded from the archive
(-2) don't actually let me load any page but the readme.  (That
is, I type a URL into the box, hit return, and Mozilla reloads the
readme; changing the home page to some URL, saving the
preferences, and then hitting home also just reloads the readme
file.)

I have to take another stab at it, and see if I'm still having
problems before I file any bug reports, but I'm pretty
disappointed, as M17 seemed better (if slower than the -2
version).
