IE 4 Linux
For cross-browser testing you can thankfully run IE6 (and 5/4) on Linux with the handy IE4Linux package.
Assuming you've got WINE you'll also need cabextract, so add a repository to your distro,
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt hardy main
sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install cabextract
Installing IE6 on Linux is a little tricky, the best way i've found to get it working is doing;
su root
wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
tar zxvf ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
cd ies4linux-*
./ies4linux
Click to create icon on Desktop, it'll run thru downloading packages and prefixes for Wine after which you should have IE on your Linux distro, which will be accessible (if you lose the desktop shortcut) from,
/root/bin/ie6
Safari / WebKit
Apple's Safari browser is powered by the WebKit rendering engine, which thankfully is an opensource project and can be installed and tested against on your Linux machine via a few steps (yep, i've run thru this and it does work).
First get the dependencies,
sudo aptitude install autoconf automake libtool bison flex
gperf libicu-dev build-essential libxt-dev libsqlite3-dev
libjpeg62-dev libpng12-dev libglibmm-2.4-dev libgtk2.0-dev
libcurl4-openssl-dev libxslt1-dev
Now goto http://nightly.webkit.org/ and grab the latest nightly build.
Unzip and Terminal into the archive dir and build the source,
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-svg-experimental
make
Once that's all done (which will take a while) you should now have a mini-WebKit browser in which to test against via...
./Programs/GtkLauncher
Navigate to the ACID3 website to test for standards compliance here http://acid3.acidtests.org/.
You should get 100/100, WebKit is pretty on when it comes to standards.
