for Chris suggestion (other thread) to reinstall, I add: remove the .netscape directory in your home dir, and let netscape create it new. This finally did the trick the two times i fought against netscape. you have to edit the preferences again and late copy your addressbook.
Or, before that, alternativly create an alter ego (other *new* user) and call netscape from there. If it works to your satisfaction, kill the .netscape directory in your home direktory.
Well, in my particular case at least, reinstalling and reconfiguring didn't help. Likewise starting fresh with a newly added userid. Always the same lockup and scrolling error message on the (locked) xterm that I started netscape from: "Warning: Select failed; error code 9". If I have my PPP up and running I can start Netscape without fear, otherwise, well, that's why I use lynx/Mutt/slrn now :-) Howard Arons -- Powered by SuSE Linux 5.2 -- kernel 2.0.33 Communications by Mutt 0.93.2 - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
