How to install midori lightweight browser on Ubuntu
|
|
Here’s a quick how to install Midori browser. It is a lightweight browser which uses Webkit rendering enginer, the same engine that powers Mac OS X Safari browser.
Midori is a good candidate for an alternative browser if you’ve gotten tired of Mozilla Firefox memory leaking and its not so lightweight feature nowadays.

1) Edit /etc/apt/sources.lst to include these line
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/stemp/ubuntu gutsy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/stemp/ubuntu gutsy main
2) Update repository by executing,
sudo apt-get update
3) Install midori
sudo apt-get install midori
Note that midori is still under heavy development and quite buggy in this testing release. So expect application freeze or crashes during use.

Would you consider doing an install-from-svn for the latest Midori? I’ve been struggling getting this and webkit-svn to play nicely.
