I've been looking at alternative open-source browsers to Firefox, as I've found opening Firefox browser is encumbered by extensions which make it pretty laggy on all our PCs, both old & new (2007-2014, see sig). I've found the lightweight Qupzilla to run snappily on all setups, using version 1.8.9 ~ dfsg1-3 from the LL3.2 repository. However, two issues have come up, for which I haven't found any online solution for Qupzilla - these are:
(1) websites bookmarked in the bookmarks toolbar don't have an individualised icon - each bookmark has the same blank grey rectangular icon
(2) YouTube videos won't go to full-screen view when the full-screen view icon (in the bottom left of the video frame) is clicked
I should add that I don't have either Adobe Flashplayer or Pepperflash installed, though this doesn't appear to affect the smooth running of either Firefox or Slimjet on all PC setups. Also, the above two issues don't appear when Qupzilla is run on Windows 7.
Many thanks for any solutions to the the above...
Cheers
Mike
