You are reading my first post using the Konqueror web browser packaged with Kubuntu 6.06! I installed it on the pc I set up for my son. 1.4g Athlon, 394mg ram, 80g hard drive Savage on board graphics Cmedia sound (originally a Gateway that I salvaged from the scrapper.).
WinXP and WindowsME were totally unstable on this system, our wireless network was a crapshoot and any attempt to play audio or video files caused an immediate crash.
Right now, I've multiple browsers open, Aerosmith's Big Ones blasting away. I've downloaded flash player 7 for linux, but can't seem to make it run. I'll keep noodling away, but will monitor this thread in case any has a clue for me. Do I have to get Firefox instead of Konqueror?
