Hi, greengeek. Try one of the following palemoon:

They should work in wary-racy 5.3 without any update-upgrade. Only dbus and dbus-glib from PPM are required.
Using an older Puppy, like Racy, instead

I've always found Precise 571 to be a good 'lib donor' for Racy; it and Precise were around at the same time.....so it's worth a shot (depending on what you're after, of course).
Possibly 561, in your case; 571 works well for 5.5.....not so sure about 5.3.
Mike.

Are you running this on what machine ?
I am using Racy 5.5 on this machine (Pentium II, 300MHz, 224 MB RAM)
because I don't know of any other Linux with kernel >2.x that will work on it.
Anyway, I would like to use a browser more recent than SeaMonkey,
not because of fancy graphics, but to be able to connect to some sites.
More to the point, I want support for newer SSL/TLS versions.
Support for newer Javascript versions would also be useful.
A textmode browser as Lynx would do, but I did not find any recent
issue of it that can be run "as-is" under Racy and do not know enough
programming nor have the tools to compile one from sources.
Any suggestion?
