miss my puppybrowser |
|
I like dillo ok, but have gotten used to the puppybrowser. In the 5.2 release, I tried to d/l it (pb-0.5.1.1-pup4) and i all went well until the libgee.so.0 and libgtkembededmoz.so came up missing. it won't even run after installing so, any ideas where i can find thee libraries or is there gong to be a 'fix' for it (maybe including the lib files in the d/l?)? Also, the PB-lucid-1.1, although it exists on a few of the listed repositories, does't meet the file size it's supposed to - can't even d/l it. arg
Anywho, I miss my old puppybrowser! I can use Dillo, but things just don't look the same in it.

Hi fenex...
You mean the pBrowser on previous Lucid versions -like 501-?
The default one?
If you still have the Live-CD (or the ISO), i think that you could just try to copy the libgee files from it... Mount the main sfs file and check on /usr/lib (the missing file could be a symlink, just a thought).
I was playing with the SeaMonkey source code and libgtmembedmoz.so its there so get the tarball.
Hope it helps.

Thanks, GustavoYz!
I didn't think about that. I'll have to try it. Thanks for the t-ball. It helped me get another one running as well. Reaally appreciate your input! That's an "ATTA_BOY" for you !

Glad to hear that.
Sometimes I miss the 'old' Pbrowser too...
Dillo? Oh... no-no, thanks.
Regards.

Midori I think was the best choice for the default browser. It had the best of Firefox, Opera and SeaMonkey, and truth be told I'm not entirely sure why the switch?

I also like puppybrowser - at one time there was a link to puppybrowser_lucid-1.1.pet, however, i cannot locate it
if you can find this version it requires libgee-20081125-i486.pet
I have used this successfully in luci series, lucid-5.20, spup-056 and snowpuppy-014
may playdayz can provide location since this was lucid pet. you might try pm to see if he still has this version

So what was the puppybrowser anyway -can't you find the sources for it and rebuild to match your running libs?

It was something MU put together around gtkmozembed.
The sources are inside /usr/local/PuppyBrowser... but gtkmozembed doesn't exist anymore in newer Mozilla products.

PuppyBrowser in Lucid 5.00 was based on Seamonkey 1.1.18, using the gtkmoz interface to the seamonkey gecko. It could be packaged to work, but it would not be any smaller than most other browsers, and it would be only as advfanced as seamonkey 1.1.18.
Someone could use xulrunner to make a PuppyBrowser out of new Firefox, and it could also be done with latest webkit.

No browser in this Puppy ? choose Puppybrowser Subject description: Only to connect Wireless, or Longer |
|
Puppybrowser is very light but self doing to browse the web, youtube, and Facebook.
Connect your wireless network, then install your favourite one, or keep Puppybrowser.
Wireless, you cannot load any browser from web before being connected, clear ? You must use your personal packages. So keep PuppyBrowser in your toolcase. çà vous dépannera souvent.
puppybrowser-1.1-lucid.pet: 8694 K : keep it in your pocket .....
