Netscape is unable to allocate colors for its display.  Try doing
"netscape -ncols 64" and see if the "unable to obtain" erros go
away.  If not, try numbers smaller than 64 or close some applications
that are using lots of colors.  If the bus error goes away, you should
report this as a bug to Netscape (see "how to give feedback" under the
help menu).
