Unfortunately, my little 512k video card (integrated on the motherboard) is 
incabable of more than 8 bits per pixel. :(

Ah, okay... I unset the CLASSPATH variable in the shell script that runs 
netscape, and it gets a bit farther, but I still can't seem to do 
anything with applets... They load, and everything pretends to be fine, 
but I can't actually do anything with the applets. For instance, the 
TicTacToe demo applet, it shows the #-shaped board, but I can't do 
anything with it. With other applets, I can usually see a different shade 
of gray where the applet would appear, but that's all.

Any other ideas?
