X-Bullshit: agile lifecycle storage hardware deep-learning-scale layer 

In Linux, it by defaults compiles Netsurf with the GTK
frontend. But you can build the framebuffer frontend
for Linux too. It works on the console, in X11 and in
VNC. You only have to set TARGET=framebuffer before
you invoke 'make'. Gives the 'nsfb' executable.

It makes sense to compare the framebuffer version for Linux
with the current plan 9, as it is also based on the framebuffer
driver. The 'gtk' frontend gives an hint of what a future
native frontend might be capable of, but it might look different,
as it would be up to potential netsurf/frontends/plan9/gui.c :-)

I also got it for rpi3B (1GB memory) on ubuntu18.04.
This is on gtk2, ans the former is on gtk3.
The purpose of it is to check rpi3B capability.

Both are not so reliable, particulary to save a file,
where both segmentation faulted.
