One question: I was expecting Rekonq to be a minimalistic but at least functional Webkit browser, sort of like Epiphany. Is it using an incredibly outdated Webkit version? It failed the Acid3 test horrendously for me, and seems to have slow page loading times.
Never heard of the Acid3 test before. After seeing your post I checked out the Acid3 test page to see what it was like. I tested four browsers - Epiphany, Iceweasel, Konqueror, and Galeon. The only one it outright failed was Konqueror. The others all stopped at exactly 72%. Not sure what that means.
Anything other than 100% is failure, but obviously some fail worse than others. The current stable Firefox gets 94, Epiphany (Webkit-based) passes with 100%, as does Chrome/Chromium, Opera, and any proper Webkit browser like Safari (on Mac) or Midori. Konqueror fails pretty hard (even worse than IE, if I recall correctly) with error messages of "You should not see this at all" in the upper-left hand. That same error message along with some other weird behavior appears in Rekonq. EDIT: Just tested Arora. It almost passes. All the Qt Webkit browsers must still be on an old version of Webkit for some reason.
You're running Lenny then, aren't you? You must have an older version of Gecko for Iceweasel and Epiphany to be scoring 72.
