I am using Debian 1.3.1 Linux, connected to the net via cable with an
ethernet card.
I just downloaded Communicator 4.06 and also 4.5, and am having the same
problems in both of them. They seem to work ok for a variable amount of
time (3 or 4 minutes), bringing up a few sites, bringing up Help
Contents, and allowing me to set preferences, then the trouble begins:
Unable to create a network socket connection on any site, including
Cool, etc. as well as other assorted problems
Once trouble starts, these manifestations continue until I exit and
restart.
>From release notes, I think problem might be due to libraries. In the
following from release notes I have put in parentheses the libraries I
have (O.K. if not followed by paren)
Linux 2.0.x only: If you are experiencing random hangs while running
Communicator, you
may be using an incompatible version of one of the system shared
libraries. For reference
purposes, here is the list of shared libraries linked into
Communicator:
libXm.so.1.2 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so.1.2.4 (only
applies to the dynamic binary)
libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6.0
libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6.0
libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6.0 (6.3)
libXmu.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6.0
libXpm.so.4 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4.9 (4.7)
libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6.1 (6.3)
libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6.1
libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1.7.14 (so.1)
libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5.3.12 (so.5)
libg++.so.27 => /usr/lib/libg++.so.27.1.4 (2.1)
libstdc++.so.27 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.27.1.4 (2.1)
libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5.0.6 (0.9)
If these are causing the problem, I would like to know where to get the
desired libraries, and how to install them.
Any help would be much appreciated.
