>Description:
Using the port at 
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/ports/www/netscape4-navigator
and XFree86 3.3.3, netscape with java works fine on the local display
with an ATI Mach64.

But when displaying on a NCD Xterm Explora 450, netscape crashes while
starting up java with an EMT trap.

I searched www.freebsd.org and saw some similar problems, but no
resolutions to those problems.

There was mention of a problem with using 16-bit displays. The NCD
display is at 1280x1024 at 8bpp, with 32MB.

The machine is P100, 64MB, ATI Mach64, Buslogic BT946C
>How-To-Repeat:
Install port
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/ports/www/netscape4-navigator

Run netscape with the display on a NCD Xterm Explora 450 and visit
the url http://www.leggmason.com/
