netscape rpm from compaq + my box = lock lock lock

Post by Eric Jon » Tue, 21 Mar 2000 04:00:00



  I've been having some wierd lockups with the netscape rpm that compaq
released for linux alpha. I'm running a pc164 with two tulip cards in it,
with pppoe. Every once in awhile, I'll crank up netscape and look at a
site only to have my machine lock up amazingly tight. Has anyone seen this
before?

you are a cephalopod.

IS YOUR INTERNET BROKED? DOES EMAILING THE NETSCAPE SYSOP NOT FIX IT?

According to some posting on this NG, people have seen many
Netscape-related problems on the Alpha. I don't have the "official"
netscape (except for the i386 binary on the RH6.1 CD -- grr! Why why
why?; really, this is an _ALPHA_ distribution!! What are we supposed to
do, run it in emulation? D**ned if I'm going to! No thanks to you, RH!!!
Grrr!!!) but I do have a local-compiled Mozilla M13 (there was an alpha
binary of M12 but none later unless they've recently added one) and it
does crash (but at least the rest of the system remains intact.)

BTW, Lynx-SSL _rules!!!_ I would also love to see an xlynx!

1. Modem TX and RX status via Num Lock-Caps Lock-Scroll Lock

'Netters,

A time ago someone asked about implementing their Num Lock, Caps Lock,
and Scroll Lock keyboard lights as a modem transmit and receive status
indicator.  

Has anyone accomplished this?  If so, is the code at an archive site?
