There is a user agent manager in Preferences>Other.
yahoomail works, but you do get that screen warning you to "upgrade"

Yup, 32 bit, no plans for a 64-bit versionSilent Observer wrote:Wow, this looks like it could be a good candidate to replace antiX on my second desktop machine, maybe even in place of MEPIS on my quad-core -- but I have a question: the mention of a PAE kernel seems to imply MX is 32-bit (if 64-bit, it wouldn't need PAE to access large RAM installation). Is there a 64-bit version, or some advantage to running a 32-bit kernel on 64-bit capable systems?

I think it's more than a QupZilla problem. I access one of my Yahoo emails on Squeeze with Galeon and observed this same behavior begin yesterday. It's stuck on a loop back to a Firefox/Safari update announcement. Very annoying. But then the Yahoo redesign is a disaster in so many ways . . .whell wrote:Similar results here. QupZilla doesn't seem to like my Yahoo mail. I get taken to a page in Yahoo that asks me to use IE or Firefox instead. If I click on a link that allows me to proceed to Yahoo mail with QupZilla, Yahoo sends me back to the IE/Firefox page. The good news is that Firefox installs fast and easy with the meta-installer.

System is now installed and ready for testing.
First observations:
Startup fast
Found Wireless Network without any problems
Recognized and set up mature Wacom Tablet
Desktop will take a little getting time to embrace. Been with KDE, Gnome, or Unity for too long.
Shutdow fast
It looks like something I can put to good use.

Jerry,
It just takes some "old" folks a little longer to get used to something different.

There's a few more computers out there that can use a 32-bit OS. Most of those will run a PAE kernel. (For instance my Atom NetBook is 32-bit only, but will use a PAE kernel.) Super old hardware will need antiX. It's i486 version will run on almost anything.

If you need 64-bit then Mepis is ready and waiting.
