A workaround was to remove (purge =) the the j2re1.3 package, not big deal here
cause i don't need (often) the java plugin for netscape...

I hope someone has a better answer.

presumably its bloating up until it consumes all available memory and
swap space.  you can easily prevent this by setting resource limits.

Do you actually have to reboot, or can you just kill your X session?

I had to shut down a 35 day old WindowMaker session yesterday (I'd tried
kill -HUPping it, that didn't work).  But no, I didn't reboot:

 12:07pm  up 35 days, 17:40, 13 users,  load average: 1.00, 1.06, 1.04

For the record, I've seen this with RedHat 6.x also.  It seems that if I
clue in that netscape has gone berserk soon enough and kill it, I'm
fine.  But if I wait a minute, it hogs so many resources the only option
is a reboot.

netscape crashes

2000-10-08 Thread FIOL BONNIN Antonio
Hello,

I am using debian woody for a long time now, and lately (last month or
so), I observed that netscape crashes more frequently than usual.

The most fascinating thing is that now, most of the times it gets frozen,
when I kill the window (I'm uning WindowMaker, and choose the Kill option
on the window's menu), XF86_SVGA gets also killed.

In fact, I have observed that XF86_SVGA only gets killed IF its CPU use is
near to 100% at the moment I kill netscape. I mean, some of the netscape
crashes make X to be CPU hungry, and if I kill netscape then, X crashes
with it.

Any ideas? Any version (up/down)grade that could solve the problem?

Thank you very much.

Antonio

I've noticed this as well, probably over the past two-three months.

I have java/javascript *dis*abled.

Frequently, crashes occur:

   - When resizing windows.
   - When moving windows.
   - When focusing windows.
   - When editing bookmarks.
   - When following links.

Though I was typically getting a number of days out of a session, it had
been dropping to a matter of minutes -- sometimes only a few, usually 30
minutes to an hour or more of browsing.

I've noticed that Netscape is sensitive to system library updates, which
isn't terribly surprising, though it's quite frustrating.

mkdir /usr/lib/netscape/473/wrapper.d
mkdir /usr/lib/netscape/473/communicator/wrapper.d

to eliminate those.  its a minor bug in the wrapper script or a bug in
the package depending on which way you look at it.  its harmless
though.

if it were not for that XUL crap, and the lack of a working
./configure --prefix=/usr/local and make install function mozilla
would be perfect.  the part that is slow is the interface which can be
squarly blamed on that XUL crud.

Ok, I know that netscape crashes, but it crashes more often for me than it
used to. I have a fresh installation of netscape (communicator pkg) 4.73,

I have noticed that if I start it from the command line, it gives always

RE: netscape crashes on mail-to

It appears Netscape 4.51 does not have the mailto problem.
Also, my browser did not crash when I went to freshmeat.net but as I recall,
it did not always crash.

I believe Netscape is broken and that is why it happens.  I just installed
4.51 and I will try clicking a mailto to see what happens.  I understand it
has been fixed.  I also want to see if freshmeat.net still crashes Netscape.

Jerry Pournelle had this mentioned on his site www.jerrypournelle.com in
the letters section.  Its to do with misconfigured smtp email setup in
Netscape - not having a user name or password setup right I think. Try
changing the setting and clicking on handy mail-to links for a while. 
Anyway, its never happened to me with pop mail configured.

Hi,

if you ftp to ftp.netscape.com and go to:

/pub/communicator/4.51/english/unsupported/linux20_glibc2/navigator_standalone/

I beleive you would find what you are looking for.

That is a Netscape bug; it's not just you.

It is a known bug (sorry I don't have any references) but to work
around it you need to have the Messenger window open(it can be

Netscape crashes after dist-upgrade slink

1998-11-06 Thread Kevin Atkinson
I just did another dist-upgrade toward the slink distyribution and now
netscape crashes before it even starts with this message.

communicator-smotif.real: locale `C' not supported.
Perhaps the $XNLSPATH environment variable is not set correctly
[... and after it loads for a few seconds...]
/usr/bin/X11/netscape: line 64:  1503 Bus error  
LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libBrokenLocale.so.1 $netscape "$@"
$ 

It does this with several diffrent versions of netscape.  Including 4.5
and 4.07.

Any help to resolving this problem would be greatly appreciated.
