Oh, it's simple. Each time midori gets started it creates a
config folder in
/media/mmcblk0p1/Programs/_midori. This folder contains the settings. Some combinations of options cause problems. If such a bad config gets remembered you will not be able to start the browser. reinstallation does not wipe the config folder. This is why it did not help. Just delete it and restart midori to get a clean fresh config file.
By the way, the
/media/mmcblk0p1/Programs/_midori/config/config file contains the homepage URL and toolbar config and many useful options. I have already made a minimal config that turns even this alpha-quality build into a working HTML viewer for DR1000.
to dixon It's great that midori works as a binary package, but it would be mega-cool to post a script with all steps necessary to build midori for DR1000. There may be pitfalls with library dependencies. It should be relatively easy to strip down the browser into a good HTML viewer by removing all buttons and menu items that are useless on a reader.
I propose to include this settings package into the next midori release. It makes it possible to associate html with midori by editing the .ini file and use midori as the html viewer.
