firefox crashingLately firefox has begun crashing every 5 minutes under Etch when loading web pages. I have no idea what the problem is, but decided to try out konqueror. So far so good. Its fast and I've encountered no problems. The konq-plugins package brought in the search engine box in the upper right. That and tabbed browsing are the two features I like most in firefox, and they are both in konqueror. I'm still sticking with xfce, though. I love how simple it is-- it avoids everything that's wrong with Gnome. I'm probably wasting memory, but what do I care. 1 GB of memory is adequate, and 4 GB of swap takes care of those times when I have lots of windows open at once. Since I'm incapable of multitasking, I have no problem waiting for 3 seconds for an app to swap back into main memory. Bookmark/Search this post with:
