qeldroma Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 me: hey guys, you have to test the new Mozilla-clone, it is done by mozilla.org. I tried it first on a Win2K machine and p.e. 'zdnet.de' was FOUR TIMES faster then IE!!! I did install it by now on all my machines instead of every existing browser and i posted it to all my friends. The good features of Mozilla are certainly alife. ----------------------------- Dirty Old Man: Yes this new PHOENIX browser looks great and for a 0.1release it seems to work pretty good. I have it installed both in MD9RC3 and Win98SE. I especially like the fact that is loads in a matter of a "very" few seconds - even Mozilla feels like bloat-ware. I am looking for their next release, sometime next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero0w Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 I believe Phoenix 0.3 should be released very soon. :D EDIT: Version 0.3 has been delayed until next week.

Guest itti Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 i read that java and flash support in mozilla is broken on ML9.0 what about phoenix support for java and flash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero0w Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 Are the supports broken due to gcc3.2 compile of mozilla on Mandrake 9? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qeldroma Posted October 10, 2002 Author Share Posted October 10, 2002 Java i didn't try by now, but flash is working in ALL existing browsers i've got here..... Maybe differences in the way, you installed phoenix?? Ah, i remember what i did: I installed EVERY RPM from texstar...that must be the reason, that all is working well :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiedra Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 I have to say I like Phoenix myself. It's not bloated and it's realy fast. I'm thinking it is not meant to support flash, but just a minor inconvinience. I am now using it as my main browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest frew Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 w00t, I really like pheonix. And flash works for me, just copy the stuff into the plugins dir...(fREW is really stoked) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest itti Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 after trying to symlink my netscape plugins folder i simply copied the plugins to phoenix... doesn´t work for me. phoenix hangs if i try to load a site that has flash animations. flash is working in konqueror *confusion* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYinYeti Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 I won't change from Mozilla at work, until this new browser can accept the User Agent Bar (see http://www.club-nihil.net/mub/viewtopic.php?t=2602) Yves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qeldroma Posted October 12, 2002 Author Share Posted October 12, 2002 Believe me, it IS possible. Didn't install nothing but texstars addons for getting it done. Perhaps i copied the plugins-directory, but that's all i did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
