I know this is not strictly a Redhat8 question, but perhaps someone has a few tips or can tell me where to send my question: I just tried to install Netscape7 on both solaris and linux, but I had a lot of problems: First of all, all of the command line options from Netscape 4.78 have been removed. You cannot set the geometry on the command line. You cannot specify -iconic on the command line, it takes forever to start up. And worst of all, it frequently hangs when I try to go to different webpages. The only work- around is kill -9 and restart. I think perhaps the non-support of the command line switches has to do with the fact that Netscape7 is not built with Motif anymore. Furthermore, it won't allow you to type in the location bar, and it won't launch the Acrobat5 plugin. I copied the Acrobat5 plugin to the plugin directory, but Netscape7 still launches Acrobat4 And, in general, the whole browser is so slow. It takes forever to do the smallest things. Has anyone else had better experience with Netscape7 on Unix? Earlier, when I had the same problems with Netscape 6.x I tried to send a detailed bugreport to Netscape, but I never heard a thing back. It is quite disappointing that everytime Netscape releases a new browser, the functionality and speed get consistently worse and worse. I should say that these problems occur only on the Unix versions. The windows version seem to work fine. Perhaps I should consider another Unix browser?
