Install the mozilla M18 port. make sure after installing that /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/chrome is readable by anyone (chmod 664) then do a "umask 0" if needed then issue a "cp -r /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/chrome/overlayinfo /usr/local/lib/\ linux-netscape6/chrome" Apparently the directory "overlayinfo" is missing after installing linux-netscape6. Now if only someone can figure out how to get plugins to work!! Plugins don't appear to work under linux either according to what I hear on netscape.public.mozilla.unix regards, Dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
