+Browser Switchboard (formerly browser-proxy) is a program which allows you to choose which browser to use as the default browser on Maemo devices. 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.
Version 3.0rc1 (2009/12/18) (Diablo package)

-Source code and packages for Diablo can be found on the maemo Garage +
For Diablo/Maemo 4.1, the recommended way to install Browser +Switchboard is via the Maemo +Extras repository, +which is enabled by default in the Application Manager. +You should find Browser Switchboard in the Application Manager catalog under +the network category. Alternately, if you're viewing this page on your Diablo +device, opening the one-click install +will install the package from Maemo Extras for you.
+Source code and packages can also be found on the Maemo Garage download page.
+For Fremantle/Maemo 5, beta-quality packages and source code +can be found on the Maemo Garage +download page. +Packages can also be installed from the Maemo +extras-testing repository +(though don't blindly enable extras-testing and install/upgrade — see +the linked page first!)
+ +For Diablo/Maemo 4.1, just open the +one-click install in a browser on +your device and follow the instructions to install Browser Switchboard.
+For Fremantle/Maemo 5, or if you want to install the package by hand:
+
+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.
