I believe it's spelt 'Galeon'

Anyway it has worked nicely for me. It has some nice features, like the 
tabbed windows (uncluttered browsing), and session saving so when it crashes 
(which admittedly it does do) you can atleast fire it up again and go back to 
where you were with all the pages you had previously opened. It also fits 
nicely in to a GNOME desktop. The HTML rendering is from Mozilla so it will 
have similar problems with pages that cause Mozilla and Netscape problems.

I would say give Galeon a chance and also give Konqueror a go. Konqueror has 
its own good points, like its cookie management, browser agent string 
customising, stability and integration with the KDE desktop.
