Seems a bit similar to mine. I am pleased to post you my screenshot. (The original theme / WM is here located: here)
Best regards. |

Going with the BSD theme:
Multitasking like a champ on FreeBSD 8.1 (okay maybe not really ).
I know it's not exactly "blingy", but it took forever to get to this point.  *pant* *wheeze*
EDIT: Wow, even the Midori FreeBSD user agent string works. 
Although, Midori is annoying as hell with this GTK theme; it displays dark text in the dark edit boxes!  I couldn't get Firefox to build, though; I would run out of memory in a big hurry and the swapping would be too much to be worth waiting for it to finish.

That is actually easily fixable. I've run into this problem on many browsers, this trick works on just about every one of them. I just installed Midori to test it and it works great.
Make sure you have userscripts and userstyles enabled in Midori. It is the "User Addons" extension.
The fix is just a simple CSS file, name it something like darkfix.css:
Code:
body {
scrollbar-face-color : white;
scrollbar-base-color : darkgrey;
scrollbar-track-color : white;
}
textarea, input, select, button {
background-color : white;
color : black;
border-color : grey;
}
a:active, a:hover {
background-color : lightblue;
color : white;
}
Now, in Midori bring up the sidebar and click on the last little icon at the bottom for Userstyles. Click the + button at the top and point it to your CSS file.
Restart Midori and now you'll be able to read what you're typing. |
