Sounds like you grabbed the libc5 version. do: ldd netscape in the directory
where netscape lives. If it shows a libc5, go back and get the glibc2 version.

Xv lives in non-free because it is NOT open software. If you use it you are

look in the non-free section on an ftp mirror of Debian. apt and/or dselect
will help here.
