How do you start uzbl? It installed fine for me, but I keep getting core dumps when I run it. There is no 'uzbl' anywhere in the path, so I tried 'uzbl-browser' and 'uzbl-tabbed'. For 'uzbl-browser' it brings up the initial screen OK, but typing 'fl' crashes it. -- Sterling (Chip) Camden | [email protected] | 2048D/3A978E4F http://camdensoftware.com | http://chipstips.com | http://chipsquips.com
