Sorry I was talking generally about web browsers. I have tried to
install elm_browser but I got these errors:

root at om-gta02 ~ $ opkg install http://elm-browser.googlecode.com/files/browser_1.0-r0.4_armv4t.ipk
Downloading http://elm-browser.googlecode.com/files/browser_1.0-r0.4_armv4t.ipk
Installing browser (1.0-r0.4) to root...
Collected errors:

I am running a version from October 10 2009 without subsequent updates. I assume that my problem is that I need to upgrade libraries.
