turn vga=788 to vga=normal!!!!!!!!
thats what you gotta do.
It only affects the console... nothing much.

Jolly good cyberoidx, you DID IT!!!! It works fine, no time out

I don't understand then the use of other vga : 788, 789

what's that for?? the console, why?

Anyway you solved one of my (numerous Pb!) Thx a lot

Hope I'll find another clever guy to tell me how I authorize my cookies on Dillo!!!

It controls the resolution....the higher you go, the more (smaller) text you can fit on the screen.
Look at the f3 file in boot:
Color 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024
256 8 bit 769 771 773 775
32000 15 bit 784 787 790 793
65000 16 bit 785 788 791 794
16.7M 24 bit 786 789 792 795

Just use the firefox included, or use Mydsl to get Opera

I dont think Dillo can handle cookies... i mean if you try some sites .. it does not even place the frames / table columns in proper layout.

Dillo is just a basic browser.

Remeber, experiment as much as possible. Trust me, i know how happy you feel when you solve stuff on your own..
Just use google.

Thx for Opera suggestion. I thought it was big, that's why I did not go thru it.

Do you think Opera is lighter than FF? In that case I'll use Opera and uninstall FF to have a light install. What do you think of that?

Bye
