can't get uzbl to work [solved]

tladuke · 2009-12-07 04:50:06

I installed uzbl-git with yaourt. Then I copied /usr/share/uzbl/examples/config/uzbl to ~/.config

Then I try to start uzbl-browser with dmenu. It flashes the screen grey for a second then nothing happens.

I missed a step somewhere?

Edit: I rebuilded enchant like it says in the FAQ and now it works.

FYI there is now an updated official enchant package. just pacman -Syu and all is good

I thought it was weird that the option it said in the FAQ to disable was already disabled in the PKGBUILD. At least I learned a little about ABS.

now that uzbl is in /community, is it better to use this version or keep the git from AUR. Seems git is even newer.

the git version is of course newer, but also more bleeding edge, and it gives you uzbl-core, uzbl-browser and uzbl-tabbed at once.

the official binary packages are built from stable releases and are split up.

Just trying uzbl, it is pretty fast, still learning the full usuage. Thanks Dieter@be and team.
