I installed 2.1.5-RELEASE yesterday, and have been trying to get netscape
working.

I'm currently using Netscape-gold 3.0b8, although I've also tried their 3.0
release version (in both cases, the x86-unknown-bsd version).

I have a couple of problems running it:

1.  It complains about syntax errors and missing keysyms, even when I use
the netscape-supplied XKeysymDB file.  A sample:

Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: osfActivate
Warning: ... found while parsing '<Key>osfActivate:activate()'
Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: osfAddMode
Warning: ... found while parsing '<Key>osfAddMode:toggle-add-mode()'
Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: osfHelp
Warning: ... found while parsing '<Key>osfHelp:Help()'
Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: osfCancel
Warning: ... found while parsing '<Key>osfCancel:process-cancel()'
Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: osfLeft
Warning: ... found while parsing 's c <Key>osfLeft:backward-word(extend)'

2.  The other problem is that it does not recognize my backspace or delete
key, which, given that I am not a perfect typist, does cause problems ;).

I asked Jordan, but he didn't seem to know about it... anyone know what's
going on here?

Thanks,

Sean.
