Move netscape in /usr/X11R6/bin Move KeysymDB in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 Move the nls dir in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 If using sh, ksh, or bash shell add to .profile XNLSPATH=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/nls XKEYSYMDB=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB export XNLSPATH XKEYSYMDB If using csh add to .cshrc setenv XNLSPATH '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/nls' setenv XKEYSYMDB '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB' (I hope the csh syntax is right I try to avoid that shell) Then everything should work fine. syntax@eramp.net
