Does anybody know whether it is possible to run Netscape under Linux on
Alpha? I can't seem to find a package anywhere. Also, I cannot find
anything about this on the Netscape web site... Maybe one can fix things
to run the OSF/1 version? Or maybe we have to wait for version 5?...

He is correct. E .13 needs too much work to make a deb worth it. As soon as
