AAGGHHH!!
How you get Netscape to work reliably on a hamm-based Debian system? Things were fairly stable for me a while ago. (I think that was with Netscape 4.05.) I tried upgrading to Netscape 4.07 and now to Netscape 4.08 (libc versions, I think). Netscape would frequently hang. I tried going back to 4.05, but now, when I display a web page containing an applet, it complains that some Java classes are not signed and hangs (it takes a kill -9 to get rid of it). (This is all using the Debian installer for Netscape.) Is the current installer in hamm (netscape4_4.0-12.deb) compatible with Netscape 4.05? (I'm wondering if when I originally installed 4.05 it was with an earlier version of the installer.) Is any 4.x version of Netscape reasonably stable (as stable 3.0x was)? I tried installing 4.5 using the packages from slink(?), but they depend on the slink version of libc6 and who knows what else, which I don't want to mess with before slink is deemed stable. Any ideas? Daniel
