bugs.
The wiki Hardware page is verified fixed and now friendly to my XO Browse
& Firefox activities. So this bug can be closed.
I have added here comments and logs relevant to XO Browse and Firefox
crashing from the new crashX.html killer web page.
My Athlon X2 2GHz 1GB WinXP desktop with old Mozilla 1.7.13 has no trouble
with crashX.html, loading and displaying it in under a minute. (Nice
photos, but they need updating.) I know the XO can't compete power-wise,
but it should not crash or stall for so long. Maybe it should just display
an empty placeholder box for web images bigger than 100kB, and ask for a
go-ahead for any webpage needing more than 1MB? Also maybe task
priorities (niceness?) need to be fiddled so the user can stay in control.
Good luck, XO team!

I read somewhere in the wiki that oom-killer will kill whatever memory-
hogging tasks it finds. So Firefox and Browse both getting killed does
not surprise me much.
