I think I needed to get that to use netscape > 4.x, although I'm not sure what version you're trying. > Just 'been there, done that' and found that 'libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2' was symlinked to libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so', ~however~ that was ~after~ editing the symlink to reflect the actual so file. It turns out that the original symlink pointed to 'libs....<2libc6> .....<2.9.0so>'. Those excerpts in the angles are the ones that I changed. Now, no more complaints about this library. You may also find that your 'libstdc++-.so' is ~improperly~ symlinked. > -- > Sean Furey > HTH, C. Masters
