It seems that no matter what I try, Netscape is stalling on a large
percentage of pages.  Part of the page will will come up and then
Netscape will say "stalled".  Sometimes just hitting reload brings it
up, sometimes not.

The connection seems fine since I NEVER get carrier dropped, ping
times are good, ftp transfers are good, and running netstat -i -c
doesn't show any errors when I run it on my machine.

This happens if I use a 2.0 kernel or an earlier one, and it doesn't
matter which version of Netscape I use.  I'm currently using
ppp-2.2.0f.

I've fiddled with modem settings, setserial, etc. but why would
everything else work great and Netscape stall??

This is driving me absolutely insane.  I need Netscape for what I do,
and I just can't make it sing.  *Any* lead will be much appreciated.

thanks for your help,
Chris.

---------------------------------

Any of the UNIX variants of Netscape need GOBS of RAM memory. Are you
running at least 32 megs of ram?  Also, if you are a single user
system, you should have 10-15 megs swap space, 35-45 megs swap space if
you allow simultanious user logins.  But in any case there is no
substitute for physical ram.  Be sure you have at least 32 meg to avoid
problems with Netscape*......Also, I use the fvwm window manager
to save additional memory.

Indeed, I am seeking a copy of that version of Netscape after
recovering from a hard disk crash. I notice that Netscape 2 is
twice as large as the older one, and I don't know what to expect
when I try to install it tonight.
