ENVIRONMENT

FIREFOX_DSP - configures the /dev/dsp wrapper to use. Accepted values are "auto", "arts", "esd" or "none" (default). Do not use this feature to select "auto" or "esd" as this will involve using "esddsp" which is known to be buggy and to make Midbrowser unstable.

/etc/midbrowser/midbrowserrc - file containing environment variables to be passed to Midbrowser.
