Netscape (Newbie alert)
I'm trying to install Netscape and have run into a small problem.
First what I've accomplished so far:
1: downloaded from Netscape - finally found out that I had to rename
package to include glibc as part of name before install would work.
2: First time I tried to run got error -
can't load libXpm.so.4 - archives told me to load xpm4.7 package
3: next error - can't load libg++.so.27 - archives again - this time
load libg++27 package
(why weren't 2 and 3 picked up as dependencies by the installer?)
4: Now I'm stuck - I try to run Netscape (from an xterm so I can see
the error) and I get back 'Bus error'. Looked through archives, but
not much help there, some vague (and very old) info. Can someone
please help me get this to run.
Next question - (just point me in the right direction on this)
autodial - can it be done, if so how. (pon, poff, and wvdial are all
working, although I have to adjust permissions for pon since
currently it only works from root - don't know about wvdial I only
tried it once from root, and it worked).
Third (and last for the moment). Is there any way I can get to the
virtual terminals (alt-Fx) from inside Xwindow?
TIA
