What's the deal with Netscape Navigator? From: "Ronald F. Guilmette" Date: Tue, 26 Oct 1999 16:00:21 -0700 Message-ID: <3743.940978821@segfault.monkeys.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Yesterday and today, I have been switching over my main personal desktop from Linux to FreeBSD 3.3. Mostly, it has gone smoothly, but I have run into a few snags. The biggest one so far is the fact that Netscape Navigator doesn't seem to want to run, apparently because of some annoying libg++ version problem or something. So can anyone tell me what the solution is? Here's are the error messages I get when I try to fire it up: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- /usr/libexec/ld.so: warning: /usr/lib/libg++.so.4: minor version -1 older than expected 0, using it anyway ld.so failed: bad magic number in "/usr/lib/libg++.so.4" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- How do I fix this? (I would go and look at the FAQ, but that would require having a working browser. So I'm kinda caught in a chicken & egg situation.) Other changeover related questions: ----------------------------------- What exactly is Xwrapper and where is its man page? (I'm using it in my new .xserverrc file, but I don't even know for sure what it does. I just know that it seems to work.) What extra magic do I have to do in order to get the -C option for xterm to actually work? (I've already set /dev/console to mode 0622 and I've already made it be owned by me, so those things aren't the problem.) Is there a version of Adobe Acrobat that will work under FreeBSD 3.x? Other changover related comments: --------------------------------- Whoever built the fvwm-1.24r package messed up and left out the XPM support. I hope that in future releases, this package will get properly built with the XPM support included. It makes a big difference. In my personal opinion, it would be Good if the default generic kernel had EXT2FS support built in.
