  1. Galeon: How to view Sharp web site using Galeon on Retail Sharp Zaurus Released · · Score: 3, Informative

    I found this in the Galeon FAQ, I set mine to "Netscape/4.0" and it works but only if I turn on Javascript. The ridiculous thing is that Netscape 4.78 which is *allowed* to see the page does not actually render it correctly while it looks perfect in Galeon!

    --------

    How can I change the User Agent string that galeon uses?

    This feature is already implemented. It is not in the UI because there was a mozilla bug that made galeon to crash at startup with some strings.

    You can set the user agent from the command line using GConf:

    1. To get the current user agent:

    gconftool -g /apps/galeon/Advanced/Network/user_agent

    2. To set the user agent to XXX:

    gconftool -s /apps/galeon/Advanced/Network/user_agent --type=string "XXX"

    3. To restore the default user agent:

    gconftool -s /apps/galeon/Advanced/Network/user_agent --type=string default
