I was able to play already download .rm file but was unable to play streaming audio directly from Netscape. After searching through the mailing list archives, I learned that I need to use the Linux version of Netscape in order for the plugins to work. However, I came upon one message (Title: linux_emu & netscape plug-ins, author robert@namodn.com) that one can use plugins under the native FreeBSD version via Xswallow. Is there any disadvantages on doing this? Or should I just use linux version of netscape. Many thanks in advance.
