nevertheless you fixed this NOT-a-BUG:

> #dhcp.server = 192.168.178.1

But why cross "#" instead of semicolon ";" ???

COOL. :-)

Really ??? The mouse "whell" works pretty well for me, but the cursor is still "off",

Hitting the top left corner indeed adjusts it, but soon it is (much) off again :confused:

Other faults:

- No BACK button
- Can neither upload nor download files, WtF
- Can't login into SF
- No user agent switcher, reports itself as "Safari on Linux" :-(

Good:

- PNG decoder seems to work (this is untrue for Arachne, or the (external) decoder is itself maybe fine but CORE.EXE fails on <8bpp BMP's coming from it :-( )
