Hi All, I've been lurking on the list for about a month now. Loaded LM7.2,8.0,8.1 to see how they work. Experiences mostly positive. Got everything working on a Compaq Presario 1244 notebook, (except the modem which I don't use anyway,) under LM 8.1 installed from iso image CD downloaded from mirror site. Thinking I'll purchase 8.2 Professional so I can use the other features from the other 9 disks, when it comes out.
I downloaded Netscape 6.2 so I could use a "full featured" browser, that supports the latest plug-ins, etc. I followed the directions on the Netscape site and installed it from root from the command line because I did not see any way to install from the LM Software Manager or Program Manager. It seemed like it installed from root, but it installed so fast I can't see where it was installed. The Netscape site is not clear where the default directory is. It says to go to the directory it is installed in and run the program from the command line. Running LM Find Files and Gnome Search Tool under root do not seem to find the new netscape program. I see an install log, but nothing in it about Netscape 6.2 I can find. Questions: 1)how do I find where something installed to? 2)is there a way to install something like Netscape 6.2 under the LM Software Manager, so I can simply check it off and let LM8.1 do everything itself? Thank you, all, for all the informative posts. Jim Lynch
