Fennec 0.6
 

Fennec m6 seems to be available already:
http://people.mozilla.com/~pavlov/fennec/m6/

Has anyone been able to have it working?

Even after installing xulrunner_1.9.1a2pre_armel.deb, Fennec 0.6 won't install :/

Cheers,
Max

Re: Fennec 0.6
 

Did you run fennec_0.6_armel.deb first and let it install xulrunner_1.9.1a2pre_armel.deb?

Re: Fennec 0.6
 

download both .debs (instructions are for external mmc and n810)
run xterm
type in:

root
cd /media/mmc1
dpkg -i xulrunner_1.9.1a2pre_armel.deb
dpkg -i --force-depends fennec_0.6_armel.deb

now you have fennec installed. it works, takes some seconds to start and crashes a lot... and it have the new finger-friendly theme

I try this

Thanks for your replies!

That one worked for me: dpkg -i --force-all fennec_0.6_armel.deb

Re: Fennec 0.6
 

Would it be possible for someone with it installed to post screenshots for those of us who may be contemplating installing it just to see how it looks :)

I am also curious to see how the scrolling performance is now-- I tried the last build that was posted here and it was so slow (expected) that it was unusable, but a great step forward in UI compared to the built-in browser. (No offense, it's just not very finger friendly to me for some reason)

Either way, I still have to copy my root to my SD card... I've only got 3mb left in my root filesystem!

EDIT: I should have looked UP :)

Where I can setup proxy? MicroB can browse, but fennec cannot.

Re: Fennec 0.6
 

@thecubed
look at my first post...
i've already posted two screenshots...
scrolling and general surfing is slower than microB

Re: Fennec 0.6
 

Wow, we must have posted and updated at the same time :)

Thank you.. I'm off to make space on my device so I can try this out...

Maybe when they start using DirectFB it'll be a lot faster (or that could have been ruled out already, I just read it in the Mozilla Fennec wiki)

ok, here is another one in 800x480 (not attached image, but linked image)http://zehjotkah.ddl.at/screenshot-2...1-09-16-28.png

edit: you get the left tab-bar by clicking the drop-down menu button on the keyboard
edit2: it seems that starting via xterm by typing in "fennec" causes in a little bit less crashing.
