Hi Steven,

I was following your instruction with these notices:

3. Open a link from an application or a desktop widget; the link should open in the default browser you configured.
4. Open MicroB by using the Web menu entry (you don't need to change the default browser setting or restart the device).

Everything works as you described until here. I registered that at this point are always The bookmark window and a blank page is opened.

5. Open a link from an application or a desktop widget; the link should open in MicroB.

Thias also works fine

6. Close all the MicroB browser windows.
7. Open a link from an application or a desktop widget; the link should open in the default browser you configured.

Here seems to be a bug. Always microb opens the link. Also if I close all microb windows before using the desktop bookmark link.

8. Open MicroB by using the Web menu entry (it should come up).

This works well and this time only the initial bookmark page is shown. No empty page as seen after step 4.

I repeated the produce step by step after "killall browser-switchboard; browser-switchboard" but without a complete restart of the device. This time after step 4 again only the initial bookmark page is shown. No empty page.

This is the output:

Code:

~ $ killall browser-switchboard
~ $ browser-switchboard        
continuous_mode: 1
default_browser: 'fennec'
other_browser_cmd: 'NULL'
Starting main loop

command: 'fennec 'http://maemo.org/packages/repository/qa/fremantle_extras-testing/''
Waited for a zombie
launch_microb with uri 'new_window'
Waiting for MicroB to start
Checking to see if MicroB is ready
Message has only 0 arguments, but more were expected

HTH, thanks, Uwe
