    Favicons gone!

    Nice build - stable - new features, etc, etc... but my favicons are gone, even though they show enabled. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Re: Shockwave no work

    Yes it does, but there are issues. If the Shockwave content doesn't load at first, resizing the page slightly forces Chimera to render on my machine (TiBook 550, OS X.2.3). Also, SW3D content will display offset when rendered via hardware acceleration, though software rendering works fine.

    Better to wait for 0.7

    Most users will be better off waiting for a real 0.7 release rather than trying these nightly builds.

    0.6 december build is recomended by the developers over the old 0.6 version because of stability
