| arno11 | good surprise and promising: links2 browser (in graphical mode + hildon compo disabled) is extremely fast on N900 with cool old school rendering. The speed reminds me opera mini on Fremantle but links2 has more options and settings. It is even possible to activate JavaScript (re-compilation needed). Scrolling works well but only with cursor. Html login form works too. Image rendering is good. But a | 12:40 |
|---|---|---|
| arno11 | better UserAgent is needed i think. | 12:40 |
| arno11 | when i say "extremely fast", it means 0.5-2sec to load a page | 12:41 |
| arno11 | and the power cons is really low | 12:42 |
| arno11 | it's not perfect but after trying lot of browsers (and tweaks), i don't see something comparable to links2 in term of performances on N900 | 12:45 |
| arno11 | and options available | 12:47 |
| maxwelld | surf2 was also very fast on d4. compared to even qtbrowser. it was opening chess.com or lichess.org, i don't remember, in a second, while the other one took about ten seconds to render the same. | 13:00 |
| maxwelld | maybe it is necessary that the browser name end with 2 for it to be fast. | 13:00 |
| arno11 | lol maybe | 13:01 |
| Wizzup | leste.maemo.org and phoenix.maemo.or will be down just a little while | 17:30 |
| Wizzup | running lxc-attach and then typing 'exit' was apparently enough to crash the host or something | 17:31 |
| Wizzup | nevermind, the wifi I am on nuts | 17:36 |
| Wizzup | is nuts | 17:36 |
| le0nklcpp | unquestionably, links2 has the best performance, the functional is the problem. I haven't tried links2 with JS, but Netsurf has JS support too(and probably better), and well... some content works | 17:55 |
| buZz | this webbrowser is so interesting to me ; https://github.com/fathyb/carbonyl | 18:02 |
| buZz | but, wont likely be fast on n900 | 18:02 |
| Wizzup | I mean it's chromium, so yeah | 18:02 |
| buZz | i often use it over ssh though :) | 18:02 |
| buZz | funny to have functional youtube (no sound) over ssh | 18:02 |
| le0nklcpp | I somehow missed that surf2 is much faster than qtwebview or falkon on N900. Great WebKit's merit, seems like chromium is not the challenger. There's also a fatal problem - keyboard input does not work on webpages in surf2 | 18:08 |
| le0nklcpp | tabbar in Falkon can be turned off in settings too | 18:21 |
| Wizzup | is there a way to turn it off by default? I don't think we'll ever want tabs | 18:22 |
| le0nklcpp | Of course. Would you like to leave address bar enabled? | 18:33 |
| Wizzup | I think we'll need that somewhere at least | 18:33 |
| Wizzup | the menu bar could perhaps be hidden too (although I don't remember if this was actually visible or not) | 18:34 |
| le0nklcpp | menu bar is now integrated with Hildon, however with navigation bar disabled it shows up. I'm working on it | 18:38 |
| buZz | le0nklcpp++ | 18:38 |
| Wizzup | le0nklcpp: ah, cool | 18:41 |
| bencoh | buZz: ah right, I still need to try carbonyl | 19:19 |
| arno11 | me too :) | 19:25 |
| buZz | its amazing to me :) | 19:26 |
| Wizzup | btw I'd love to see if we can get a part of anki styled nicely for maemo :) | 23:28 |
