Install Midori questions

[technomancer]

My cpu and/or memory max out and slow the computer  too easily. With only Firefox running, and only 3-6 tabs open, sometimes even less, I experience slowdowns and /or crashes. Hoping a resource friendly browser might help.
Synatic icon legend tells me Midori package is not supported, but a forum search tells me some users are using or have used Midori succesfully, so I tried it. I downloaded and installed  Midori successfully via synaptic. Found Midori icons in start menu/Internet/Midori. Opening it failed with the following message.

Error - file:///usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html

The page 'file:///usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html' couldn't be loaded.

Error opening file: No such file or directory

Try again

Not sure what to do. I added Midori-dbg as a wild guess but that didn't help. Midori home page offers downloads for Ubuntu. Is that a recommended way to add this software to Linuxlite?
Suggestions welcome.

I have duplicated your issue-



It looks like there is an Ubuntu package that it is requesting ubuntu-artwork



You can install ubuntu-artwork package with synaptic and then reboot. No LL logos were changed, everything worked exactly the same in my setup.
And after starting Midori browser i get no error.


I hope it works for you as well. Be aware it does install other packages with it. Be sure they meet your standards of privacy and ethics.
No cpu max out on my system.


You can try installing from source here-> [url=http://http://midori-browser.org/download/sourc...ad/source/
I have a hard time with it, not too often and i never remember the proper steps....but you are welcome to try that as well.
