Hi!
I tried netscape solaris version (2.5.1) using a SunOS 5.6 machines
shared libs on a ss5: Worked like a charm! Great!
Did the same on an ipx: Always ends up with an 'Illegal Instruction'.
-> Are the missing 'v8' capabilities on the ipx the reason for this?
In case it is, is there any chance to upgrade an ipx to v8? :-)
Or are my used SunOS 5.6 shared libs the only reason for v8
dependency? (Do v7 versions of such libs exist?)
I've forgotten: On both machines runs NetBSD/sparc 1.5.
Markus.
