Hi everyone, all of a sudden my root login seems to have broken.
When I su to root, it just stops and doesn't do anything. When I switch
to another VC and try to login as root, it gets as far as telling me I have no
mail, then it just stops.I have to press Ctrl+C to get out in both cases.

If you want to use a debian package for netscape you have to first download the
netscape tar from netscape.com, then place it in /tmp owned as root. Then you
use dselect to choose the appropriate netscape package.

Hi,
One more problem about the netscape. I download the netscape from
ftp.netscape.com and ran the ns-install to install it. But it just does
not work. If I install it manually following the README.txt, the result is
the same. But when I tried to install through dselect, it refered me to
netscape.
