Re: [SuSE Linux] netscape craches
I use Communicator 4.5 everyday under both NT 4.0 SP3 and SuSE Linux 5.3 d and I can't say I see much in the way of crashing. Yes Communicator does crash once in a while on both my systems but it is quite rare. I use messenger as my email client on both platforms too. There does seem to be some strange behavior where Communicator seems to use alot of memory. I noticed one time that netscape had a process size of 130MB. It's didn't crash and I simply shut it down and restarted and then it was fine again. I only saw this behavior the one time. It was very obvious as anything I did within Netscape caused the disk to thrash a bit due to swapping. My primary Linux box that I use daily has a fair amount of memory: 128MB of RAM and a 128MB swap partition. "B. John Gilger" wrote:

Don't hold your breath. Netscape 4.5 doesn't work on any OS AFAIK.
The advice to go with Netscape 4.03 is good.
