Hi there,

Everything we need for our little Nokia toy is ARORA webkit browser.
It is 300kb deb file + libqt library. That's all. It is fast as hell !!!
Is anybody working on recompilation for MAEMO ?

Search for webkit? I doubt anyone's working on ARORA in particular, but pretty much any webkit browser should attain similar performance...

epiphany-webkit, for example, I believe works with Debian.

Unfortunary deb file is bigger that allowed to attach here

Woha ! That was fast.. Works ok also not as much of an improvement as arora is compared to firefox on my desktop. And some hildonization would be nice (Fullscreen button...)

But thanks!!

Download package to SD and install it from command line
dpkg -i <path to deb>/<package file>

Take this file. It support long tap

The main problem is that Arora is QT instead of GTK, making it (currently) much harder to hildonize than, say, Midori or Tear.
