Maintenance

K-Meleon has drifted into maintenance mode within the past year. It is stuck on an older version of Goanna with backported security patches and bugfixes. It's missing out on things like Web Components and bigint variables that Pale Moon introduced. The main dev also maintains a browser called Serpent, which has the current Pale Moon web engine, the user interface from Firefox 56, and patches to run on Windows XP/Windows Vista/ReactOS. This is somewhat significant, but all WP:OR until somebody reports on it, Rjjⁱⁱⁱ (talk) 04:08, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SSE and SSE2 requirements

Can you add information about versions that require SSE and SSE2 procesors? Is it possible to use K-Meleon in Linux + wine? Neonix (talk) 17:09, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Neonix. Have you asked at the browser's forum, http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/ ? Regarding Wine, the documentation has an overview of setting that up.

Also, the information should probably not go into the Wikipedia article. The policy at Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not says "Wikipedia is an encyclopedic reference, not an instruction manual, guidebook, or textbook." under the WP:NOTHOWTO section. Detailed setup information is not in most software articles. DOSBox, for example, doesn't even mention any type of memory and only mentions processors as they relate to the subject of emulation.
