OK, everyone has chimed in about using truetype and that is true.
Talking about the ugly fonts, I read something about documentation called
"fonts disuglization for X Windows", or something like this when I was reading
documentation like crazy. I couldn't find it right now. Does this ring a bell
for anyone?
I am thinking, there might be some useful information

Get the ones for Windows 3.1 or 3.11. Those are self-extracting zip files
that unzip can extract.

You can use the xfstt font server to serve up true type fonts. The xfstt
RPM can be found at any redhat contrib mirror.

I don't know much about it, but I do know that you can use TrueT
Does anyone know what I can do to get better fonts and clearer text in
Netscape 4.5 and KDE Desktop. I love Linux but the text is terrible.
Any hints or suggestions?

I've noticed that installing junkbuster will eliminate Netscape
freeze-ups. Using any old proxy may work just as well, but I like
junkbuster and haven't tried anything else.
I think you can find junkbuster in the 6.1 version of powertools, but
if not go to http://www.waldherr.org/junkbuster/ and

Yes, I know where to find the file, but what part of the installation

Gnome-help-browser but its not really a useful generic web browser as the
KDE one is. Gnome will be using Mozilla once it stabilises - Mozilla is now
close to beta

I noticed a sweet side effect with Netscape 4.6 that shipped with Rh 6.1, when
resizing my MAIL window, netscape would launch itself 35x exactly then core
dump. I was able to reproduce this error about 5 or 6 times. All I had to do
was open netscape, open mail reader, click the corner to resize it

As usual Netscape crashes ( = comprete freeze) A LOT even more on RH6.1 than
RH6.0.
At least on RH 6.0 I was able to to a
killall -9 netscape-communicator
now top shows a
"ld-linux.so.2" hanging process using 99% of the CPU
while with : ps auxw| grep netscape
I get:
benno 619 17.0 44.8

mount -t, not just -t. Aside from that, it should be right.
So to copy a file from win i would type mkdir /mnt/hda1 then -t vfat
/dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 ...hda1 is my win partition...then i would copy it using
cp /mnt/hda1/myfile.tar.gz /usr/local
Does this look right?

Best to boot Linux,
What file is it that reads the comps file for the install?
Also, where does it check for the comps version?
Kind regards
