Ah, nice to hear that you can confirm this. (monochrome icons) I still suspect it's an X Driver problem since it happens with NS 4.05 as well on my 24bpp XF86_SVGA with Matrox Millenium (I). (the Matrox Mill support is in the SVGA driver). Do you use the SVGA driver as well? When I run NS 4.04 under XFree86 with the XF86_S3 server in 24bpp mode none of these problems (java console crash, monochrome icons) are showing up. The former is a Amd586/DX4/133 on ASUS SP3G,matrox millenium I, 64 MB, the latter a P5/233 with Elsa Gloria (S3-968). > > Charles Sprickman > spork@super-g.com > ---- > "I'm not a prophet or a stone-age man > Just a mortal with potential of a superman > I'm living on" -DB > > On Fri, 3 Apr 1998, Christoph Kukulies wrote: > > > My netscape 4.04 is still dying when I'm clicking the > > java console or java is started by hitting some > > java web page (www.javasoft.com). > > > > Anyone out there running the same configuration and can confirm this? > > (FreeBSD-2.2.5R, XFree86-331/XF86_SVGA, Matrox Millenium 4MB, 1280x1024) > > > > > > -- > > Chris Christoph P.
