I was using http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/i386/ to download texlive_texmf-minimal because the pkg_add would time out for some reason and I would end up only with the partial package. I changed the mirror and everything is fine. I am hopping to give Landry backtrace of crashes in next hour or so. I had no issues adding any other package with pkg_add. > > The stupid web-site which I use > > for work > > > > https://pipeline.aug.edu/cp/home/displaylogin > > I can't help here, but as a student I can empathize.

Anyhow, I picked XXXterm for my my main browser on the new installations . I have no idea how Marco does it but it XXXterm works flawlessly with the crappiest sites. It loaded above site without any warnings. If somebody could teach me how to print a web-page or two from XXXterm, I would not keep Midori around. I will not be playing with surf and netsurf much longer. I like idea behind netsurf and it is much, much more usable than Dillo but JavaScript is show stopper for me. Cheers, Predrag
