Hi Christophe, No, I am on Ubuntu. I use Adobe Reader for any books I buy because many of the publishers (like apress) seem to recommend that. For all other stuff, I use the regular pdf viewer. I took...

Christophe, Have you come to a conclusion about what you said before (listed bellow), and have you found out if other browsers support it as well? I would think any browser based on WebKit would...
