Found it! Under the "Debian galeon packages" thread. In summary, bring
up the gconf-editor and go to
"apps->galeon-snapshot->Browsing->History" and select
"completion_enabled".
I'm running galeon-snapshot in sid which is version 1.3.3. One of the
things about Galeon that I really like(d) is that while you manually
type in a URL it would progressively find the best match for what you
were typing as you typed. If you satisfied the uniqueness you could
