I just downloaded Netscape 2.0b6a and am starting to get frustrated that
Netscape has Java-enabled EVERY SINGLE UNIX version of Netscape EXCEPT
for BSDI... What are they thinking, it can't be that difficult (although
not knowing how their internal class-library implementation is, I can't
be positive, but I am pretty sure they're not using that dlopen() call
that was their excuse for not Java-enabling it earlier). Can anyone bend
Netscape's ear to add this support sooner? Jordan?
Also, I tried running the Linux version, but it gave hundreds of
"syslog() not supported" messages and wouldn't read the host.conf file I
had placed in "/compat/linux/etc/host.conf", choosing the incompatible
/etc version first. I'm running FreeBSD-2.1.0-RELEASE. Should I upgrade
to -CURRENT (at least the kernel) to get better Linux emulation? What am
I doing wrong? Thanks in advance...
