Comment (by mwolfe):
When I try to read comics (gocomics.com and comickingdom.com) the old
Torbrowser crashed if I had my display set to default resolution and
opened three or four tabs. So I set my default to a rather low pixel rate,
down to 1024 x 768, and I could open three of four tabs, but no more.
Now at default resolution (many more pixels) I can open 7 or 8 tabs
without a crash. So the alpha seems to have fixed the basic Torbrowser
crash from prohibiting discrete graphics. Many thanks for all your help.
I asked what I could do about the graphics chip. The answer was to spend
$300 and send off my computer for a couple of weeks, and, since it's 7
years old, it's not clear if it's worth putting in another $300 when more
things might go wrong. Plus I'd have a hard time giving up my computer for
two weeks.
So many thanks for what seems to be a fix (except for the Guardian
website).
