Raspberry Pi Forums

So, I finally cleared out my cellar and setup a small lab to get stuck into some serious Pi work (yes, I KNOW the cellar needs clearing out woman. You don't have to remind me EVERY year).

First up: testing my new Gertboard with the Element14.com test suite.

Attempting to download the software, via Midori, produced a 'file' of zero length in the SD card Raspian Pi directory, and a continual 'downloading' notification within Midori's status bar (bottom-right). Hmmm... is this a permissions issue do you think? I'm running as user 'pi'.

So I powered-down the Pi and took the Raspian SD card to my Ubuntu desktop machine's SD card reader/programmer and downloaded the file without incident via Firefox.

It's a small pebble in my shoe, but I'd like to know what happened here please.

I don't know why this isn't fixed , but it's a known problem for a
long time.
I guess any of the other browsers will work.

If you want Firefox (called Iceweasel for trademark reasons ) :
ghans

Aha! Many thanks for that. I'll get right on it.

Iceweasle. LOL That made me smile ...

Much appreciated.
