Well, I've set up Netscape Communicator on my iBook running
current as of yesterday kernel without knowing your page.
Yes, it works great.  Excellent!

BTW, do you have any plan to add the compat stuff to
emmulators category of our pkgsrc tree?  It has suse_*
already, but is for i386 only.  I heard of SuSE have made
ppc, sparc, or whatever version, but do not know about it.

I've installed the communicator of LinuxPPC-Halloween
version which is based on RedHat.

I can't comment on here, but it looks to me that base stuff
of compat works well.  We just find out some bugs, track
down and shoot them.

Again, thanks to your hard work!
