-s3 or -s3V? there are known problems with s3v, and a patch at
www.sta
You must set up which device its on. You can find this out by looking in
dmesg. They are looking for something like /dev/hdb, /dev/hdc etc, based
on where your cdrom is located on the machine.

I've just installed Netscape4 using the Debian installer. I installed
all the dependencies, but Netscape complains it can't load libXt.so.6.
I'd be grateful to know which package contains this.
Thanks, Mark
