Re: tlug: where is the linux netscape for free.

["Eric Standlee" <fwiw3980@example.com>]

Funny thing.  Even though I downloaded the netscape-comon rpm off pht and
put it on my Linux partition.  RPM barfed at installing it as it said that
"data type 9" was unknown.  I guess that my RedHat 4.1 distribution is
showing its age!?!?!?!?!  I know that this came up with ?Jonathan?
installing on a ?Sparc?, but does that solution work here; are there other
specifics at work here?

On a similar note.  My copy of RH 5.1 will arrive soon.  Should I just wipe
the slate clean and install it fresh, or is there a way to install the base
5.1 over a current 4.1 and what are the benefits/drawbacks?
