Midori Browser: lightweight browsing

Downloading it on my laptop now. Might compliment my minimalist RatPoison WM...
 
Btw, if you get a Unique-dbus-WARNING when trying to run Midori, or it tells you it is unable to connect to the currently running process, it is because you probably don't have the system dbus and libdbus installed.

apt-get install dbus

pacman -S install dbus

etc...
 
Why did this article compare it with firefox then?
Seems to me chrome would've been more fitting.
 
I like midori... it really is fast and lightweight compared to firefox these days...

If you want to try it on Ubuntu here's a small guide I got from UbuntuForums

First, you must add two PPA's to your sources.list

Code:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Add these lines to the bottom of the file, then save and close it.

Code:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/webkit-team/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/webkit-team/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/midori/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/midori/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Now you must add the keys to access the new PPA's.

Code:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 2D9A3C5B
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys A69241F1

Now update your repositories.

Code:

sudo apt-get update

And install Midori.

Code:

sudo apt-get install midori

Enjoy! ;)
