The 800bm rate also appears at boot time. >> 6. Netscape Communicator/Navigator: great mess, none working. > >I've noticed that too.

Then again, maybe because it >was a newer rpm I built it from (although both were Netscape 4.7). I personally find the monolithic approach a convenient approach, as far as netscape is concerned. The actual sub-packages are only required by that application, and pollute the list of all available packages. The whole set is also quite puzzling, as lots of different versions are available and it is not at all clear what is the most recent one. I really hope that a working and monolithic .deb will soon replace them all. Sergio
