Don't know much about that. I don't really use bookmarks myself. > and last but not least, java is installed, but now i get to see a > application/x-java-vm missing plugin.... don't know what to do with > that one either.... Then java isn't installed correctly. :) For starters, check that /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so exists. If it does, start Galeon from the command line and watch for error messages. If you get some libc errors, you need to update java to a newer version.

Actually, I've found the new galeon to be much faster than the old one. ESPECIALLY tab switching. My only real complaint is the keybindings and some of the features that haven't made it back in yet.
