Issue With The Appstore When Running From A Pandora

[ngrcat]

Is there a firefox variant ready to go?

I can hardly breath on the net without Adblock+.

There is AdBlock for Chrome and Midori comes with AdBlock already included.

Well, if you do end up stuck with Chrome, you can try this:

It appears that there is an Ablock-alike extension for Chromium now.

Ahah. Awesome. I was under the mistaken impression that ad-blocking plug-ins were not possible for chrome-based web-browers.

Thanks.

As of right now... (as far as I understand) you can't technically block the ad from loading but you can block it from being displayed.

WizardStan that makes sense as to why google had them t&c then, cheers

how does pandora manage zooming?
On the old iPhone you double-tap on a section of webpage and it zooms in on it, can pandora do that, is it a browser feature, if so is it in chromium?
I'm so used the iPhone browser just zooming in and out with the taps

on my netbook I use firefox, shift+scrollwheel allow me to zoom in/out
would pandora and chromium use some kboard shortcut like that to zoom page?

i use chrome but i hate its chrome. luckily you can turn the title bar off, now it's pretty seamless with my wm.

That's pretty ironic when you consider that Chrome was ironically called Chrome because of the chrome in other browsers.

Sorry for that awful sentence!

I'm not a big fan of Chrome myself. Luckily we've got the choice. This is just which is baked into the ROM.

 

[EvilDragon]

Did you use Midori?
It has some flaws - try Arora (also included in the firmware).
Does a way better job for me

ABP is nice, but I want firefox so that I have link search. I swear, Chromium is always missing vital features. (Originally it didn't even have a full screen mode, and now they still haven't implemented link search) I Will probably install the vimperator extension for FF, and change the config to work with the Pandora's controls.

I'm not sure if I'm happy about this...
/me installs the latest chrome

Why not dude. if you don't like it just install another one , just because it will be the default browser doesn't mean you have to use it Chrome is excellent I use it for windows. I don't think it supports RSS feed ATM though

There's a plugin for that.

 

[mvickers03]

Actually there does seem to be a problem with app store Midori doesn't display images correctly

Arora displays fine but but when I click on something to download, the download manager pops up and it says network error ration cancelled,

Is Chromium available to download yet?

I'm a little confused, are we talking about the OS or web browser?, also is Pandora getting the google-infected Chrome or the open source Chromium? If it's the google-infected Chrome will I be able to delete it from my Pandora?

 

[jlepley]

It'll be Chromium, I'm sure. A Chrome port is highly unlikely.

 

[Kramy]

It's Chromium.

Best browser I've ever used on Linux. Certainly the least crash prone out of all of them.

That's interesting. I use adblock in Chrome, and it's definitely been my impression that performance takes a hit when advertising heavy pages are open, which would be consistent with your understanding.

But! I recently installed flashblock as well, and it certainly seems as if embedded flash does not load at all unless I click its containing element, which makes things noticeably zippier.

I use Google Chrome in Ubuntu and love it. Other browsers look way too cluttered for me now.
