I figured out the netscape problem, but this one is still bugging me.


 Second question.  What is this telling me?
 
 dpkg --install x11/fvwm95_2.0.43b-5.deb 
 Selecting previously deselected package fvwm95.

 Thanks,

JL Why can xlogo find the libraries and netscape not? 

Because xlogo is compiled for libc6, whereas your netscape is compiled 
for libc5.

Install xlib6 from oldlibs.

Looks like some error in the installation scripts of fvwm95. Check out 
the version in frozen. It shouldn't happen with this one, otherwise
this is a severe bug.

Ciao,
