#locate netscape find the exec file, move it to /usr/bin tkdesk seems to be happy Chris On Sat, 20 Jun 1998, you wrote:
Using SuSE 5.2, whenever I try to start Netscape, either from the App Bar, or by clicking on an .html file displayed in TKDesk, I get an error window that says "Alert! Can't execute: netscape". This happens whether or not Netscape is already running.
I can start it from the fvwm2 menu and from the console without any problems.
Does anyone know what I need to do to get it to start from within TKDesk?

Actually it's more elegant to symlink netscape to a dir in your path, like ln -s /opt/netscape/netscape /usr/X11R6/bin/netscape Or, if it's a directory that you execute from a lot, like /opt/kde/bin for kde users, then I would add /opt/kde/bin to your path in /etc/profile.
