palemoon browser
And if Palemoon were the best browser, simply the best ?
And if Palemoon were the best browser, simply the best ?
after installaing Palemoon, can we delete seamonkey and Firefox from usr/lib (Triton Puplet 5.4) ?
Seamonkey, I presume answer is yes, but firefox and palemoon perhaps have common libs. I shall see, and confirm whatever working or not.
Wihdrawal does not impact Palemoon (rebooted)
Further interrogation, are the brand new ISOS cleaned of these libs ?, i verify that right now....
Tahr is ok.

Pet or SFS
Has anybody made a pet or sfs for the newest version of Palemoon?
Thanks
Slacko 5.9.3

You don't need a pet or sfs to install Palemoon.
Go here ==>http://sourceforge.net/projects/pm4linux/
Download pminstaller-0.1.6.tar.bz2, unpack it in your home (or tmp) directory and click on the pminstaller.sh script.

The installer makes it the perfect default browser for Tahr or other new pups, as you don't have to sweat tracking down the latest version afterwards.
If anyone's wondering, I have tested the installer with Tahr 6.0 (to update to the latest version) and with Precise 5.7.1 (for a new installation) and it has worked perfectly with both of those Pups.
Tip: about:config works like in Firefox and SeaMonkey.
I don't know yet if Pale Moon has the same cache leakage issues as the others, as I went ahead and tweaked it immediately.
It's actually easier to do in Pale Moon than it is in Firefox:
1) open a new browser window or tab in Pale Moon.
2) enter "about:config" (without the quotation marks) as the URL address.
3) in the search bar, type "memory"
4) Find the line that reads "browser.cache.memory.capacity". By default, it is set to -1, meaning the browser can use unlimited memory for its cache. Right click on that line and choose "Modify".
5) Input a new value to determine how much cache memory you want to allow. I use 65536 (for 64 meg), but 32768 should be plenty.
It's a similar process in Firefox, except that when you enter "memory" into the search bar, you probably won't find the browser.cache.memory.capacity line.
So for Firefox, you then have to right click anywhere on the list of entries, choose "New". choose "Integer" for the type, and then type in "browser.cache.memory.capacity" for the entry.
Once you enter it, then you can set the value to whatever you like.

Palemoon wants you to touch base with them.

Palemoon permission
OK, situation explained to Palemoon developer - we now have permission to distribute the .pet, assuming it is unaltered.
See: http://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php ... 5&start=10

cheers guys
the developer of palemoon has given the ok for the .pet package and also for it's inclusion in tahrpup. the license agreement has also been updated making it easier for free community distributions like puppy to package palemoon into their distro specific format.
i will update the pet soon to include the official palemoon updater

666philb,
That's a nice outcome!
Slavvo,
I don't think it's overrated, in my view, the exact opposite is true - it's underrated. However, I'm biased in favor of Mozilla. The first time I saw the internet, was through Netscape Navigator. I have a hard time choosing between Firefox, Seamonkey, Iceweasel or Palemoon. I like them all, as they are all descendants of The Browser. Bill Gates too, had an unhealthy infatuation with Netscape Navigator at the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tr7_T_M0g4&app=desktop

Pallemoon is it!
Palemoon is a lean and nimble Firefox, just what I have always wanted.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Start it like this, then choose or make one:
Something I don't understand about PM aboard Nix.. Why on Earth leave spaces when naming directories?
Here, open >> /root/.moonchild productions/pale moon/profiles.ini
.. and have its path include the full line in quotes:
Code: Select all
palemoon -ProfileManager
Here, open >> /root/.moonchild productions/pale moon/profiles.ini
.. and have its path include the full line in quotes:
Yah, sub your default number.Path="/root/.moonchild productions/pale moon/*.default"

SOLVED - Saving ID and password
Does anyone know why palemoon won't offer to save my ID's and passwords. Firefox always did. Is there a setting that I'm missing?

Saving ID and password -- SOLVED
Thanks, Semme. That's all that was needed.
