Opera works.  Links2 works under X and under svgalib if I first copy over 
the links.cfg from BL2 (or probably if I use the config file from the BL3 
links2).  xli and links2 both fail on my 1.5MB image (I pasted 6 smaller 
ones together) but work (quickly) on a 60K image.

Oddly, my ssl but not my nossl links2 says 'waiting in queue' as it loads, 
and then puts 'Links bookmarks' in upper right and garbage all over the 
screen, but after that works correctly.  This did not happen in BL2 as I 
recall.  The queue is probably to load the 189 pages or so of garbage.
Odd little bug.

A 48MB swap file (partition) might be better than 32MB.
