No Web Browser?

Postby WisdomFire » Tue Mar 11, 2014 12:56 am

So, I just installed Arm on my raspberry pi. I look around, everything is nice and perfect. Suddenly, I see that there is no web browser, so I try to install one:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sudo pacman -S firefox')
Doesn't work.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sudo pacman -S chromium')
Nope.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sudo pacman -S opera')
Still nothing. So, I update my packages
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -Syyu firefox')
It updates. Still nothing. I do the same for all the others, with the same result as firefox What is going on? I am clueless as what to do next. :cry: :?:

dwm
midori

Firefox? Ridiculous RAM requirements to build on an ARM device. We build everything with distcc and local linking. (We've used a board with 3GB, and it still dies)
Chromium? Doesn't build right anymore, see the build failures: http://archlinuarm.org/builder/
Opera? Is that even open source?

dwm - lightweight wm, midori - lightweight browser. Look them up.
