I had written to this list before, complaining that opera and netscape 6.2 crashed on some web pages when being run in remote X session. Well, that was not the whole story. These browsers fail only when running on my main server. When the client (really the X server) logs onto any other machine in my little home network, these browsers do not crash. So, there must be some configuration problem on the main server. I suppose I will never find out what is causing this, although I will try.
Second item worth bringing up. I was running konqueror (redhat 7.1) as a remote application on my wife's new linux box (an old retread win98 box), and all was well. I was reading the NYTimes, which is free but full of popup ads. I finally started rejecting cookies from those popup people. Suddenly, I started getting plugin errors galore from konqueror, which made it almost unusable. I restarted konqueror, with the same problem. So, I reset the cookie policy to accept those cookies again, and the problem went away. This seems like a bug in konqueror or a clever way for the NYTimes to avoid parasites like me. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
