1.) Question:
|
||
|
|
CAN NETSURF ALSO BE RUN WITHIN AN TOS ENVIRONMENT?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Answer:
|
||
|
|
Yes NS can run on classic TOS. More or less.
|
||
|
|
It is intended to run within the FreeMint environment.
|
||
|
|
However there is no support for networking
|
||
|
|
right now. Networking support for FireTOS is maybe possible
|
||
|
|
in the future.
|
||
|
|
NS also has problems with Path conversions on all FileSystems
|
||
|
|
running under TOS. Try setting full paths within the Choices file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2.) Question:
|
||
|
|
I DON'T HAVE AN 15 BIT GRAPHICS CARD, HOW TO RUN NETSURF ANYWAY?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Answer:
|
||
|
|
You need to trigger the config a bit.
|
||
|
|
enable the following Choices settings:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
atari_font_driver:vdi
|
||
|
|
atari_transparency:0
|
||
|
|
suppress_images:1
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This will run netsurf as a bloat textmode browser :)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3.) Question:
|
||
|
|
WHEN I WANT TO RUN NETSURF IT SAYS: "SOCKET NOT CONNECTED"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Answer:
|
||
|
|
Take a look at the system requirements! I statet NetSurf needs
|
||
|
|
the latest FreeMiNT 1.17 RELEASE. There was a bug within previous
|
||
|
|
Versions. Please update your kernel. OR install polipo proxy
|
||
|
|
provided as RPM within sparemint distribution. This is an
|
||
|
|
workaround, it should work out of the box. But if you want to
|
||
|
|
use the polipo disk-cache you should edit the config file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4.) Question:
|
||
|
|
I'M GETTING "INSUFFICENT MEMORY" MESSAGES WHEN RUNNING NETSURF.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Answer:
|
||
|
|
Try to increase the TPA_INITIALMEM Configuration value within MINT.CNF
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5.) Question:
|
||
|
|
A PAGE CRASHES - WHAT CAN I DO?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Answer:
|
||
|
|
Try to increase the stack memory for netsurf with the stack tool,
|
||
|
|
example:
|
||
|
|
stack -S 3000k ./ns.prg
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If this results in "insufficent memory" messages - look for the
|
||
|
|
FAQ entry.
