It takes a little hacking and installation of libstdc++6.0, but it works as well as opera's browser. You need to run it from within xterm, and I took antonio's few lines of cli input and made a little shell script called runminimo to make it easier to launch. Pages like Google Reader work great, whereas opera won't properly load the ajax app for me. it does have a fullscreen mode, but there is currently no way to get back out of fullscreen. if someone figures this out the browser would be nearly end user ready. The way it is now, if I use fullscreen mode I then have to hit the home button, go back into xterm, open a new tab and run ps to get the id so i can kill the app. If I don't launch fullscreen mode, when I close minimo xterm closes the app but returns "Segmentation Fault". there are some other minor issues but if someone who knows what they were doing I suspect this could easily replace the default opera browser. it is just as fast, smooth, and easy to use. And besides handling pages opera won't render correctly, TABBED BROWSING ON THE 770!!!
everytime I want to run minimo? Is there a way to create a symbolic link and make an icon in the Extras folder?
I put those four lines in a file called runminimo (you could call it anything i suppose, like "m" for example) and put it in /var/lib/install/usr/bin, since that is included in my path in the user .profile file. that makes it much easier to launch. the file is attached.

Wouldn't you need this in the file:
#!/bin/sh
cd /var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo/
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
export DISPLAY=:0
./minimo
Then make the file executable by chmod +x runminimo
#!/bin/sh
cd /var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo/
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
export DISPLAY=:0
./minimo
Then make the file executable by chmod +x runminimo
I don't think so. I just put the file under /usr/bin/run.txt (renamed to run.txt) and then I can execute it just by entering in run.txt. It works fine.
Make sure you have minimo installed. Then use the "mv" command to move the 2 directories that it makes to the Minimo directory: /var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo
After all that, you'll need to type this in Xterm everytime you want to launch minimo:
cd /var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo/
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
/var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo# export DISPLAY=:0
/var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo# ./minimo
Or, you can use the autoscript which was stated above.
