yes, idea itself is good, but in that article some strange actions proposed such as dragging selected text to the icon, tapping place to insert to (instead of cursor position). In our case just icon on toolbar which will switch between scroll/select modes is enough but unfortunately I can't change default browser UI.

soon will upload new version, with configurable settings, without libicu dependency and now only one package, no need to install custom versions of microb-eal, browser-eal and tablet-browser-daemon.

who wants to test my new version? please tell me if there are any problems with installation. You can find settings in GConf at /apps/osso/browser/webkit, turn key documentation on to see what values mean.

If you installed my previous packages you MUST issue following commands in terminal as root BEFORE installing this new package:

dpkg --force-all -r microb-eal browser-eal tablet-browser-daemon
apt-get install microb-eal browser-eal tablet-browser-daemon

You also should remove engine-chooser and libicu38 packages since they aren't used anymore.

pronvit: Your uninstall instructions worked for me (although I also removed engine-chooser since your new package includes it). I don't know if this is the case all the time, but I had to reboot before I could use webkit in the browser.

After rebooting, everything looks very nice! Finger scrolling works everywhere now, scrollbars are back for quick scrolling. The only reason I know I am using webkit currently is the high acid3 score, and the fact that downloads still aren't working.

Very nice work!

It does sound funny, but I was looking for some way to tell that I was actually using webkit (not just imagining all the improvements)

I installed your previous version, now Im trying to install this new version. I did the dpkg and the apt-get. Both of those went fine, but now I need to remove engine chooser and I dont see where its installed. Its not in app manager. Am I suppossed to remove this in xterm? Also I dont see libicu38 in app manager either. I know these need to be removed before I install the new version. Can I get some help how to remove engine-chooser and libicu38 packages?
T.I.A.

You can run dpkg -r engine-chooser libicu38 in terminal. But this is optional, they are just not needed anymore but it's not required to remove them before installing new version.
