Hi. I've noticed a rather curious problem. Netscape 4.02b7 worked fine when my machine had 32MB of RAM in it. No problems, it loaded up fine. I am referring to the FreeBSD-native version of the Communicator, of course. Today I upgraded to 64MB of RAM, and as soon as I did, Netscape 4.02b7 wouldn't load unless I removed the license query in preferences.js Just thought you'd find this interesting. Just a increase in RAM resulted in the problem(s) that everyone's discussing in both this forum and hackers (there the program appears to load, but nothing appears - it just takes up CPU and RAM). I'm running 2.2-STABLE as of Mon Aug 11, on a DTK 82430HX-based board (a GMB-P55IPS). The machine (now) has 64MB of EDO RAM, 512KB cache, IDE hdd's and a WD7000 (driving a NEC SCSI CD-drive). Oh yes, a Cyrix P-150+ processor overclocked to 166. --- Khetan Gajjar | khetan@iafrica.com or khetan@os.org.za http://chain.iafrica.com/~khetan | PGP : finger khetan@chain.iafrica.com UUNET Internet Africa Support | FreeBSD enthusiast-www2.za.freebsd.org MOTD : BSD code is terrible. Of course, everything else is worse.
