when i click on a link, in galeon (using potato/gnome), that
tries an https:// connection a dialog greets me saying

        This document cannot be displayed unless you install the
        Personal Security Manager (PSM). Download and install PSM
        and try again, or contact your system administrator.

eh? "personal security manager"?

the system administrator didn't have a clue (that's me, of
course) so i snooped around--

        $ apt-cache search galeon
        wprint - Print any charset from web browsers and HtmlDoc
        galeon - Mozilla based web browser with GNOME look and feel
        galeon-common - Mozilla based web browser with GNOME look and feel - shared 
files
        galeon-nautilus - Mozilla based web browser with GNOME look and feel with 
Nautilus support

maybe nautilus is what i need? hmm -- maybe i've got it already:

        $ dpkg -l galeon\*
        Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
        | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed

        ||/ Name                     Version

        ii  galeon                   1.2.5-0.woody.1         
        un  galeon-beta              <none>                  
        ii  galeon-common            1.2.5-0.woody.1         
        pn  galeon-nautilus          <none>                  

nope, it's not installed. so what is it?

        $ apt-cache show galeon-nautilus
        <snip>
        Description: Mozilla based web browser with GNOME look and feel with Nautilus 
support
         Galeon is a fast Web Browser for the GNOME Desktop Environment.
         .
         Galeon's use of Mozilla's Gecko rendering engine makes it more feature
         complete and standards compliant than most other browsers available.
         .
         By using the GNOME and GTK libraries for the user interface, Galeon is
         usually faster than mozilla and the interface integrates well with the
         GNOME Desktop Environment.
         .
         This version does include the nautilus galeon view, for viewing web pages
         within nautilus with galeon.

what that tells me is-- well, nothing. after a few more searches i find

        $ apt-cache show nautilus
        <snip>
        Description: file manager and graphical shell
         Nautilus is an open-source file manager and graphical shell being
         developed by Eazel, Inc. and others. It is part of the GNOME project, and its

relevance to my problem: zero.

:
Would you like RXVT to start with more than 80 COLUMNS OR
24 ROWS? For an rxvt session, running under X, specify
how many rows and columns you want:
        rxvt -g 132x30 &
Try "man rxvt" for more info.
