by Hi. I am jst startingto use the Linux OS, and *really* like it.
However, the book I have only explains so much. Here are my questions
(any and all answers appreciated, preferably via email):
1) How do I run certain programs (dip, gunzip, tar, etc) as regular
user rather than root? Is it even possible?
2) I downloaded Netscape v2.02 for Linux, and followed the
instructions in the Linux manual that I have (gunzip it, un-tar it,
etc), however, when I type "netscape", it doesn't run. I tried to
enable it thru the File Manager, but that didn't help any. I even
followed the instructions in the README fil, and moved the "nls"
directory that get's created into the directory "/usr/X386/lib/X11",
but that still hasn't helped. What am I doing wrong? I would
appreciate it if someone who has done this could give me precise,
step-by-step instructions.
Thanx. I may be back for more....
