Re: Question about Netscape 7.02 on Linux

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



That's a tough question to answer, since
I can't imagine anyone else here uses twm -

All I can suggest is that you nuke your ns
prefs and restart netscape - failing that, is
it possible to consider a window manager
from the current millenium?

Best Regards,

Joe

I hope this question is at least remotely related

have found a problem with Netscape 7.02 on Linux.
It is related to which window manager you use.
I have summarized the problem (below).


Any help or advise will be appreciated.

Thanks

Freddy
