Hello, Since I was getting so tired of having the FreeBSD Netscape crashing on me I thought I would try the Linux version under emulation. OF course, I grabbed the Linux 2.2 kernel version of Netscape and found out I didn't have all the right libraries, it worked by installing the linux-base-6.0 from http://www.freebsd.org/~marcel/ all it really required was to remove /compat/linux first. I also had staroffice installed... (cause I wanted/need to write papers). Anyway it worked fine with Linux-base-5.2 after following all the instructions under... http://www.serv.net/~mcglk/staroffice-install.html I went over the instructions again and patched up my fresh /compat/linux so it would look at staroffice for libraries, etc. but now when I try to run starOffice it appears to try and load but then it exits saying: "Bad System Call" Any idea about what this bad system call is or how to find it in order to give you guys more info? did upgrading to Linux-base-6.0 change things enough that I need to completely re-install staroffice? or is it just because Linux-base-6.0 is still beta and that call is waiting to be implemented? Thanks in advance, -- Trenton Schulz twschulz@cord.edu P.S. even though the Linux netscape works flawlessly, it seems to crash just like the FreeBSD netscape doh, I just can't win :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
