Ok, I removed the .netscape directory and now the script in /usr/bin/X11/netscape works fine. (This seems to start v4.05) This is when I get the "Aborted." error message.
Now if I type /usr/local/netscape/netscape I still get the bus error. I wonder if anyone else is having problems with v4.5. Something is screwy here, because the script in the X11 directory (the debian thing) appears to call the exec in the /usr/local/netscape directory... I am confused... :O Thanks for you help!
