The solution is quite simple really In home directory select View and tick `show hidden files'. Then create a fake directory called .netscape(don't forget the dot) This is necessary because LM8.2 is not shipped with any netscape browser and therefore the install programme will not have created one. Then transfer your usual netscape bookmark file over to this directory but edit the file ending to something like bookmarks.html.
Alternatively go to konqueror - bookmarks - edit bookmarks, and you will find that because you have created a fake .netscape directory in the right place the `import Netscape Bookmarks' is no longer grayed over.Procede as normal.
