KDE 1.1 has a new feature, in the KDE Control Center, under Fonts etc.
called Apply style to non-KDE apps.  Through X resource wizardry, it
changes the colors & fonts of all X11 apps, including Netscape to match
the fonts used in KDE apps.  It does it's job alright - Netscape now has
the same style fonts & colors as the rest of KDE, but this feature goes
a little too far & smashes some font settings in Netscape that make
readability easier.  Turn this off & Netscape goes back to normal.

1. KDE 1.1 on sparc station 20 : can't start netscape -> core dumped ?

I've just installed KDE 1.1 on my SS20.

I've downloaded

netscape-common-4.51.sparc.rpm
netscape-communicator-4.51.sparc.rpm
netscape-navigator-4.51.sparc.rpm

from rpmfind.net (ultrapinguoin 1.1.9 directory) and installed it in the
following order :

rpm -i netscape-common
rpm -i netscape-communicator
rpm -i netscape-navigator

But, when I launch netscape, I've an Abort message with a core dumped.

Have anybody experienced this problem ?

Thanks

Franck.
