Jason,.
It looks like you need the xlib6 package in oldlibs. The version of NS that you have
is libc5, so you need to get the older libs to run it . Prolly want to get xpm4.7 and
libc5 while your there.
BTW, you can find many answers to questions in the mailing list archive. This
question has been asked _many_ times, before you post check out
http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/ . It has a very good search engine to look for
key words
