dpkg -L <package name>
will list all of the files that the package installed. Using this you
can find where netscape is.

That's a weird location to install too. How did you install it?

Maybe it isn't installed right, or you don't have it in your path.
Have you tried "./netscape"? Normally '.' is not in the PATH.

Sounds like Windows ;-). I don't think there are usually 'run' or
'start' programs on Unix systems.

I don't know for sure, I use galeon and (rarely) mozilla. If you
really like netscape I suggest getting mozilla instead. The
difference is that you get a different logo and mozilla is free
(source too which allows for better package building).
