What about Konq with the konqueror-nsplugins package. Konq isn't a geko browser yet the nsplugins package allows you to use mozilla plugins.
Thanks for the advice. I went in Synaptic (I am using gnome) and installed konqueror. I also installed the konqueror-nsplugins package.....
Is that enough to install java on the browser? The applets don't work at the moment in it but I can see web pages OK. How do I install mozilla plugins into it? There is a konq-plugins deb package that I haven't installed yet..... Should I install it? What does it do that the nsplugins doesn't do?
What does Knetattach do? Do I need this or is it just a gimmick?The settings page in Konqueror says that java is installed globally etc... but it doesn't work yet.
Comments appreciated. Regards Michael Fothergill
If you don't use KDE otherwise, I know its a lot to drag in. I don't use KDE either but I like Konq (and k3b CD burner). Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST@lists.debian.orgwith a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmaster@lists.debian.org
