Comment Galeon: How to view Sharp web site using Galeon (Score 3, Informative) 310
I found this in the Galeon FAQ, I set mine to "Netscape/4.0" and it works but only if I turn on Javascript. The ridiculous thing is that Netscape 4.78 which is *allowed* to see the page does not actually render it correctly while it looks perfect in Galeon!

How can I change the User Agent string that galeon uses?
This feature is already implemented. It is not in the UI because there was a mozilla bug that made galeon to crash at startup with some strings.
You can set the user agent from the command line using GConf:
1. To get the current user agent:
gconftool -g /apps/galeon/Advanced/Network/user_agent
2. To set the user agent to XXX:
gconftool -s /apps/galeon/Advanced/Network/user_agent --type=string "XXX"
3. To restore the default user agent:
gconftool -s /apps/galeon/Advanced/Network/user_agent --type=string default
