I had the same netscape problem. It appears that the new libraries must have a new config file somewhere which is not what the old (a.out) libraries want. After I built ELF binaries, I went back built the X libraries in a.out and installed them in /usr/X11R6/lib/aout. Netscape was suddenly happy. I can also report success with multi-headness. I have a Matrox Millenium 8M PCI and a Matrox Millenium G200 8M AGP and they are working great. The only catch was the Gamma was messed up on the AGP card and needed to be hardcoded in XF86Config per the docs. Ken On Tue, Jul 27, 1999 at 02:41:54AM -0500, Chris Csanady wrote: > Really?
