@tanago, Fennec 17.0+pixman works beautifully. The speed, although not brilliant, is acceptable and much improved over the previous versions (the speed of nothing is brilliant on my N900 anyway ). The only thing that bothers me is that HAM keeps trying to "upgrade" my 17.0 to 17.0a1 from the repos. How do I tell it not to? I do not want to remove the repo from the list...
