I've had this problem. It has to do with the installation program ( for RH
6 ) not setting something up right... I think it's the fonts that was the
problem. Here's the knowledge base entry:

Netscape crashes on Java pages (REF#990511-0082)

Description:

I have installed Red Hat Linux 6.0 and Netscape keeps crashing when I reach
a page with Java applets in it. I have also noticed that some of my
applications do not display fonts correctly.

What is going on?

Solution:

There is a problem in one of the installation RPMS that is causing many
systems to not have a complete list of fontpath for X to use.

To see if this is the problem you are facing, please use the command



chkfontpath --list



You should get output that looks like the following:



Current directories in font path:
1: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled
2: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled
3: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled
4: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
5: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1
6: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo




You should then add the 75dpi scaled font to your path list using the
command:



chkfontpath --add /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi

I feel special that I know this because I'm hardly a newbie, LOL, sub-newbie
maybe :-)
