Note that this is unlikely to be a glibc2-related problem. 4.5 is unstable
on every LinuxPPC machine I've tried it on (it works fine on Irix and
Solaris).

I shut off javascript, and 4.5 has been running just fine.

Not my experience.  Communicator 4.5b2 in announcing that it expires
Dec. 10.  4.5 crashes often, even with Javascript turned off.  It -does-
seem to happen predictably when opening those little advertisement
windows -- like anything with http://geocities.com in it.  Autocrash.

It works on mklinux? (it is so identified on the Netscape site).  I am using
the June release 4 CD system on a 7500/100, and otherwise everything
works beautifully.

Is this a Linuxppc r4/KDE or Xpmac problem that will be fixed by r5/gnome?

I -live- on the web.  Am I going to have to go back to MacOS when
Communicator 4.5b2 expires on the 10th?
