I suggest you look into the Open Sound Systems' driver (

eventually have to pay for it, but it was the only way I could get my

Their driver can be downloaded for

Can anyone suggest anything else I can do to get this working?

don't need to emulate them. You only check this option if you have a 2

Also, if your mouse is not listed then select "generic 3-button" mouse.

You might try Open Sound Systems: http://www.opensound.com/lynxos.html
There driver is not free, but you can try it, and if it works, it is
less expensive than buying a new sound card.

A couple of things you might try. As root, save your E-mail addresses
in a file. Then copy them to your "/home/user/.netscape" file. Then
do a "chown" to change the owner to "user" and possibly do a "chmod
+rw" to make sure anyone can read the file.
