31 Yes, I tried that. In my case it just made no difference. Everything worked
32 on Chromium as suggested but I couldn't (easily - I'm very busy right now)
33 figure out how to get Chrome and Chromium to sync bookmarks and
34 passwords and I want Windows, Android and Linux (all flavors) to
35 be in sync if possible.
36
37 For me Frank's Meta-a solution is a really good one for right now.

39 Will investigate more in a few weeks when my workload gets
40 more normal.
