NetSurf Web Browser

Hi,

is it possible to use the netsurf browser on the PS2 linux system?

Just thought because of RISC and open source of this browser!

Yours Baggacfreak!

Sweet! Did not know that there was a port already!

If you want to know the whole story about porting , then this is how it was done:

DoctorXYZ once said that it would be nice to have free alternative Internet browser for ps2. Then I, SkyNet, created here thread about it:

http://psx-scene.com/forums/f19/open...e-baby-105626/ (Open Source Cross Platform Web Browser for PS2 with HD support. Lets make our Dream come true Baby...)

Then we together--I and DoctorXYZ and some other members of this forum--chose NetSurf as the most suitable resource-wise web-browser to run on PS2,

And all credits go to MegaMan---because he ported NetSurf to PS2--"SDL-version of NetSurf". I helped MegaMan to test it.

NetSurf for PS2 runs on top of Linux Kernel 2.4. So in general what happens is at first starts Linux--and then it automatically starts NetSurf Web-Browser....

But still I want to thank to everyone involved into project---but the most to MegaMan--that he made it come to every ps2 User's home...

I am not boasting, because I do not like to boast, but it is just I wanted to tell the whole story because probably a lot of people still missing that "Free Internet Bromser for PS2--NetSurf---Exists".....
