It's a pity that didn't work!

ARMini standard modes, 16 M, 1280 x 1024 @ 60 Hz
Image memory Direct and Compressed -> Automatic handling
Tinct 0.14 (25 Apr 2009) [fr]
Alignment exceptions off
RISC OS 5.19 (05-Dec-12)
Beagleboard-xM

I don't know if this is relevant, but still. *status shows:
ScreenSize 160k
SpriteSize 0k

Not that I ever had to do something special to get NetSurf working on the
Beagleboard (besides setting Alignment exceptions off) that I remember...
