What other browsers work on RPi?

wallarug

I have the debian image which comes with "Midori" which is very slow.

 

I was wondering if there is a quicking browser for my image.

 

If so how do I get it?

  • You can install chromium by typing sudo apt-get install chromium-browser

     

    The initial page shows up pretty fast, however if it's got to do additional requests for various JS libraries and addons like twitter, fb or ad engines, they tend to slow it down and despite you have the whole page loaded, you can't really do anything for a while (something like adblock would be helpful here).
