Re: [suse-ppc] upgraded kernel - kde now freezes.
Sorry, I accidentally forgot to change the subject line before posting. I _am_ experiencing freezes but I have _not_ upgraded the kernel. On Thu, 17 Jan 2002, I, Thomas Armagost (silly@well.com) wrote:
Twice I've tried to download Mozilla 0.9.6 from the SuSE ftp site. Both times the download stalled frequently and overall speed was slow. Then about halfway through the download my screen froze. Both times. Once using Konqueror and again using lynx. I've never seen lynx freeze a screen before in my life, and I use Mac OS. Mac OS 9.1 freezes about once a month (this is a big improvement over previous Mac OSs) but lynx is never the culprit!
Nothing else of consequence was running on linux when the freezes occurred. Beige G3, kernel 2.2.18, 384 MB RAM, wvdial, KDE2.
Question: Is there a SuSE mirror from which Mozilla 0.9.6 may be downloaded? URL, please. I've looked around but have been unable to find one.
Question: Is there any reason why I shouldn't download the rpm from mozilla.org? Are there any modifications that I should make to the non-SuSE rpm when installing it?
