Very Computer

Hello,
        Has any one there tried to download Netscape 3.01 Standard
        for Linux? I need your help to have it working.

        I tried download it
        ( its name is netscape-v301-export.x86-unknown-linux-elf.tar.gz)
        on my pc runing Slackware 2.2. After uncompressing it by "gunzip"
        and extracting files by " tar -xvf " I could see several files and
        subdirectories there including the excutable "netscape". The
        file permissions were ok. But when I run " ./netscape "  at that
        location it simply responsed " ./netscape not found "! no matter
        I put the full path with it or run it as root it won't see it.

        Any help will be very much appreciated!

A dump of "ls -l" of the directory can help to know whether there are some
silly mistakes. BTW, have you experienced similar problems with other
programs?

=09Yes. I did use "ls -l" to check directories --- that is the way=20
=09I usually  see file permissions. I didn't have this kind of problems
=09with other applications.
=09Thank you for the hint.

Hi,

Would you know if you have a.out format or ELF format? Netscape 3.x
Linux version needs ELF format to run. Look at the Linux ELF-HOWTO
to find out more.
