Yep, that's the problem. The only Linux-based browser that appears
to work is Opera (Thanks Greg and others). While I'm not excited
about having yet another browser on my machine, it is a reasonable
solution. I haven't had time to tinker with Opera much and just d/l
the free version. Who knows, maybe over time I'll adopt Opera as
my primary browser tool. Need time to compare and see if there is
any unacceptable behaviour (like does it send my machine info to
places).
