I can't duplicate it either with Netscape 4.05 (the libc5 one, almost
everything else on the system is glibc). I've found Netscape very
stable on Linux if one avoids Java/Javascript.
2.1.117 is the first 2.1 kernel I've tried since 2.1.64. It's been
working O.K. (X11, AWE MIDI sound, networking) though I haven't tried
the Kernel NFS stuffs yet. Other than a bunch of TCP/UDP checksum
errors, there haven't been any diagnostics in the logs.
