BROWSER SWITCHBOARD version 3.3b2 Browser Switchboard is a program which allows you to choose which browser to use as the default browser. It supports MicroB, Tear, Fennec/Mobile Firefox, and Midori out of the box, and can also be used to launch MicroB without having browserd running. Download: Binary packages and source are available for download from the project page on garage.maemo.org: https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=1159 Quick Start: 1. Download the binary package: browser-switchboard_X.Y-Z_all.deb (where X.Y-Z is the version number, of course). 2. Install the package using the Application Manager (open the Application Manager, then select Application->Install from file in the menu). You can now select the default browser by using the Browser Switchboard applet in the Control Panel. Links in most applications, locally-saved web pages opened from the file manager, and (for Maemo 4.x) entries in the Web sidebar panel will open in the browser that you select as the default. Opening the "Web" menu entry and running "browser" from the shell will also cause your chosen default browser to open. If you don't configure a default browser, MicroB will continue to be used as the default browser. No matter which browser you select as the default, MicroB can always be opened via the MicroB menu entry in the applications menu (for Maemo 4.x, installed in the Extras menu by default), or by running "microb" from the shell. While MicroB is open, it will receive all links from other applications; closing MicroB will restore your chosen default browser. If you experience trouble after installing the package, try rebooting your device. If that fixes things, please report this as a bug. Configuring the Default Browser by Hand: If for some reason, you don't want to use the Control Panel applet to configure Browser Switchboard, you can create the configuration file by hand from a shell. Run the following (where $ is your prompt, not something you type): $ cat > $HOME/.config/browser-switchboard < is the primary maintainer, with Jason Simpson (the original developer) assisting in development.
