@HH: Thanks for the follow-up . . . yeah, think I mentioned here that a recent version (last 3 weeks) of qupzilla crashed multiple times in the same iBook . . . 14.04, so I tried it. And historically I had the same issues with midori, so haven't check it lately . . . didn't see "luakit" in the synaptic search for browsers eligible for my system . . . but, might be worth playing with???
