I think if that is the case we should ditch abrowser and make a fork of
seamonkey calling it iceape. (like debian used to do...) ;)
No, you are not wrong but you don't need to use the "other services" if you
want only the browser. Seamonkey is extremely lightweight. It's firefox minus
the bloat. Highly recommended.
I haven't tried it yet because I've seen it is the default browser of
"Desktop" Trisquel ---> meant for good pcs, which my Asus 701 is not (630MHz
factory underclocked, but I can unlock 900MHz, still slow however).
So basically I thought Abrowser was too heavy for me, but now I'll try it

Abrowser is essentially identical to upstream Firefox. You haven't tried it
yet? I think it should have been your first choice, not your fourth. Firefox
is not that heavy, and especially not if you disable JavaScript.
I spent last days free time to test two browsers: Qupzilla and Pale Moon,
which should be lightweight but powerful at the same time.
Qupzilla: very fast, responsive and load almost all sites perfectly, but
crashes when the CPU is under heavy pressure (e.g., when loading lot of tabs
simultan
Oh, I thought it was completely free (in terms of freedom).
What are other lightweight and free Mozilla-based browsers? How lightweight
is Abrowser compared to Pale Moon for example? Thanks.

That's not what it is, it's the regular Trisquel, meant for most users, while
Trisquel-mini is meant for particularly low-end or ancient PCs (but this has
more to do with the amount of RAM you have than the speed of the CPU).
Anyway, this is inco
Ah, okay, mine is the 1000HE ... not sure what else will fit your situation.
Midori works for me on Facebook etc., it just has this certificate issue with
trisquel.info
My PC is an eeePC too, precisely the 701 4gb version (the father of
netbooks).
Regarding the browser, I'm looking for one that can load pages completely (I
mean without graphical glitches or missing images), very quickly and without
freezing or crashing. I won't use it for heavy sites (Face
Still facing the problem, any help would be appreciated.
Oh, I guess I should move to another browser. Which one can I use? It has to
be lightweight as Midori because of the poor resources of my netbook.
I know of it, but I wouldn't really call it "lightweight". It, too, is a
WebKit browser, but uses Qt rather than GTK, so I don't know if the version
found in Trisquel's repo is secure and if it isn't, that PPA I mentioned
wouldn't help.
Honestly, I think just about any browser will do (incl
Icecat works, at least on this site, and it runs on my old EeePC, so will
probably run well on your old netbook too. That is interesting about the

Midori in Trisquel 7 Mini is insecure.

I'll give it a try. Thanks!

No, from a practical point of view it's an entirely different browser.
Firefox and SeaMonkey are about as similar as Midori and Qupzilla at this
point. The only thing
I've already tried the FAQ fix but it didn't work.
Meanwhile I was looking for lightweight alternatives to Midori and found
Qupzilla. Do you know it? If yes, is it good?
I really think that Firefox-based browsers like Abrowser will work for you
just fine if you have it configured right. Disable JavaScript (QuickJS is an
extension that can help with that) and install uBlock Origin, and you'll be
golden.
From what I see on the project page, Seamonkey is a suite including e-mail,
chat and other services. I don't want all of that. I just want the most
ligthweight browser that can be a decent successor of Midori.
P.s. Correct me if I'm wrong! I've never used Seamonkey.
> It's firefox minus the bloat.
That's not true. SeaMonkey is the continuation of Mozilla (itself derived
from Netscape). Firefox's codebase is related, but it diverged immediately
and has never been particularly similar since then.
I also doubt that SeaMonkey performs better than Firefox.
>I also doubt that SeaMonkey performs better than Firefox.
You are free to try both on old hardware and see for your self. Seamonkey
performs a lot better. And yes I know it is the continuation of Netscape but
from a practical point of view it really is Firefox minus the bloat.
Midori is fine, it's just that Ubuntu (and, as a result, Trisquel) fails to
properly deliver security updates for WebKit. If you want to use Midori and
other GTK WebKit browsers, I suggest using this PPA:

Hi everyone.
I'm experiencing an issue while trying to access this site with Midori
(version 0.5.11) using Trisquel GNU/Linux 7.0 Mini.
In particular, this is what I get after accessing trisquel.info:
