Hi all,
I'm going to set up an embedded linux system, where I will need a web browser.
Do you have some indication about which can be used? (I will have a 10" Touch screen LCD)
thanks

If you want to have a person do web browsing on a screen, what is "§embedded" about the system ?

the system is a AMD au1100, 16M ram, 16M flash, dedicated to machinery control: te customer wants remote access via a http server, and the possibility to connect the LCD for maintenance with the same interface used remotely.
This is the reson I want to put in it a web browser.

An additionnal question : if I want to display a web page on a small LCD, what do I need exactly ? A X server, a window manager (even a light one) and an embedded web browser like dillo ? How big should be the RAM ? Is it possible with only 8 Mb ?
Thanks for your help Xavier

So the Browser accesses a http server on the same hardware.
Funny idea.
IMHO connecting a standard Laptop via Ethernet for maintenance, sounds better and cheaper than using a propriety LCD screen device.

Links might be for you:

It looks interesting, but I have yet to hear a report from someone actually using it in an embedded design. If you give it a shot, please post your experience here so we all know a little more :-)

I've looked at links for an embedded multimedia kiosk. I even had a brief exchange with the maintainer. I'm guessing that the project is somewhat fractured and that it is not a priority.
That's a shame, because links is a *very* cool browser. It's small, light, and rock solid. The project just needs a shot of adrenalin.
If anyone is interested, I might be talked into helping out. I'm not in a position to do any significant amount of work, but I could help out. And I can speak both English and Czech, which might help since the development team is Czech.

Check out DILLO at dillo.org; very fast, very small.

Hi, sorry for the dealy in the answer, but I have been out of office for a week :-)
My setup is Microwindows with Nano-X as X server. I have seen some browser, such as Links, that works directly from framebuffer, but I haven't tried it.
My setup has 32M ram: I do not know: with 8M you should try to run it directly from framebuffer
