I saw some notes about "Solaris and some Linux versions not supporting
an internal browser" (but I wouldn't be able to retrieve them, it is
really too painful to navigate the help with one window coming up at
each click)

Preferences OF WHAT ?
I assume you do not mean firefox Preferences.

And the (first) help window which comes out invoking "?" has no
Preferences link at all.

Note I type "?" in the linemode client (the script
/lnx/idl/idl70/bin/idl on our system, or the process with executable
/lnx/idl/idl70/bin/bin.linux.x86/idl).

The linemode client, not the development environment (which I never use)

No setup one can place in STARTUP.pro or in an .Xdefaults file ?
