Re: GNOME and Netscape

[Ryan Leduc <leduc control toronto edu>]

I've noticed linkages between gnome and netscape as well..  That and 
window maker window manager (mostly? gnome aware).

I've found netscape has started crashing sometimes when I click on the
"x" 
button of one of several windows"  In an earlier version of gnome, I
couldn't start netscape because of a complaint about dragging and
dropping.. or something..  I then ran netscape 3.x and the problem
disapeared..

I believe gnome supports the motif drag and drop (or something like
that), and netscape is a motif ap.
