For M13, I put this little script in /usr/local/bin and added a menu
entry in /etc/menu.

#!/bin/sh
export GECKO_FONT_SIZE_FACTOR=1.2
(cd /usr/local/mozilla13/package ; ./mozilla)

The above takes care of that pesky start-up problem. Maybe there's a
more elegant way (like fixing the real start-up script).  Just
s/mozilla/netscape/ .

netscape6 anyone?

2000-04-06 Thread Christian Hammers
Hello 

Did anybody get the new netscape6-beta working on a Debian 
potato/woody system?
(here it silently ends without giving more information)

...
WEBSHELL+ = 1
 I am inside the initialize
  Hey : You are in QFA Startup 
  (QFA)Talkback loaded Ok.
  WEBSHELL+ = 2
  assuming dd is off for Navigator
  nsCollationUnix::Initialize mLocale = de_DE
  nsCollationUnix::Initialize mCharset = ISO-8859-1
  Inside netscape.xul overlay...


bye,

Re: netscape6 anyone?

2000-04-06 Thread John Stevenson
I have netscape6 (mozilla in netscapes clothing...) running fine on my potato
install.  I ran it as root first (a bit risky but its not an important system) 
and it
complained about missing library:

libstdc++ 

So I checked thorugh dselect and noticed some old versions of this library.  
Once I
had installed them + an upgrade of all the latest packages in potato, everything
works very nicely.  Now I dont know for sure whether it was the old library or 
just
the update, but it works and I am happy with it!!

One thing I did note was that you need to change to the directory which 
contains the
netscape script, then run ./netscape  Without this, I got permission problems 
from
the run-mozilla.sh script (which seems to be called from the ./netscape script.

Johnny.

I had no problems running it on my up-to-date potato laptop. Like John
I ran it in the directory in which I unpacked it and it fired right
up.
