Tell me - how did you install netscape? Did you install it with the Debian netscape-installer package, or did you attempt to do your own installation? If you installed netscape without using the Debian package, then try starting netscape up with: MOZILLA_HOME=/usr/local/netscape netscape (where instead of /usr/local/netscape, you would actually put in whatever directory you used - you seem to indicate that you put netscape in /usr/local/netscape which is why I used that dir.). If this works for you, you may consider replacing the symbolic link that's invoking netscape (you can find out where this link is with "which netscape") with a little script that looks something like this: #!/bin/sh MOZILLA_HOME=/usr/local/netscape export MOZILLA_HOME exec /usr/local/netscape/netscape "$@" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
