Mandriva: 100/100 on Acid3
Submitted by srlinuxx on Fri, 04/25/2008 - 10:57.
So, thanks to the fine work of the WebKit team - particularly the GTK+ port - Mandriva can now achieve 100/100 on the Acid3 web standards compliance test. I’d include a picture, but I’m not in a position to upload them right now.
Cooker users can test with webkit-0-0.32531.2mdv2009.0 and either use Midori (package ‘midori’) or rebuild Epiphany with its WebKit backend (two changes in the spec file). I am now sending the packages to backports for 2008 and 2008 Spring, so users of those two distributions can shortly do the same, if web standards compliance is what floats your boat!
For comparison, our current Firefox (2.x) build scores 54/100.

That's Amazing!
Next maybe a walrus will pass the Acid3 test!
In other words... how the HECK does a Linux distribution pass a web browser rendering test? That's unpossible!

re: mdv acid3 test
he probably meant all the web browsers on mandriva.
True, but...
Surely, but the headline is misleading (Adam promotes his Mandriva). Unless the desktop is built using (X)HTML like some widgets, it means too little.
