| With Firefox3.5.2 currently in Karmic I have to admit I'm impressed.
| It's by and far the fastest Firefox release so congratulations to them.
| But how about something a little lighter for your netbook, well the
| latest epiphany now has a webkit gtk backend this is easily as firefox
| but with one big avantage (in my opinion) on ssd drives it uses less
| disk swaping so it sits there happily producing pages without many
| hitches.

Ubuntu 9.10 Gets A New Splash Screen, Not Plymouth
,----[ Quote ]
| Introduced last year with Fedora 10 was Plymouth, a project to replace the
| aging Red Hat Graphical Boot (RHGB) software. From the start, Plymouth
| leveraged kernel mode-setting to provide a flicker-free boot process and a
| splash screen that would run at the panel's native resolution. Beyond using
| KMS, Red Hat designed a nice plug-in architecture for Plymouth to offer
| different functionality and make it easy to add in new artwork.
