It's probably not even controversial to say that the only real (fairly
stable and versatile) choice for a graphical browser is from Netscape. 
Some people seem to find standalone Navigator more stable than the whole
Communicator package.


PPP working now! Recommended browsers for slink?

1999-11-06 Thread John Miskinis

Hi,

Wow!  It was as simple as adding the defaultroute line in my
/etc/ppp/options file!  Many thanks!

I tried to send this message using gzilla (from slink), but it
chokes on pages that are too complex.  (It doesn't even show me the 
navigation buttons in HOWTOs!)

I checked out the mozilla that was on the slink CD a while back,
but I kept getting error dialogs in many of the configuration panels,
and I ended up using gzilla to read local files instead.

I do not wish to start a browser war, I just want to avoid a big
download that will have problems running on slink!

I can't tell you how happy I am to be able to connect to the net
via linux.  This is one of the last pieces of a puzzle I was not
even sure would fit on my IBM Thinkpad 560!

John
