Netscape only works as root

[Lucas Vogel]

I have this same problem on 6.3 with my acct., but my wife's works just fine
so what I ended up doing was deleting my user account and creating a new
one. I've also noticed that the SuSe support db has nothing very useful on
it either. I'm about to use the newsgroups to see if I can get a reason;
maybe you could do the same/beat me to it? If you do let the group know what
you found out.

Thanks

Subject: Netscape only works as root


Hi All,

Just installed a Linux system at home (Suse 6.4)

Installed the same setup on a box at work.

At home I have a problem with Netscape (4.72). While logged in as root,
everything works fine. Where I first tested the modem connection. But after
relogging as my regular user ID, netscape no longer functions. clicking the
icon in KDE does nothing, and typing netscape at the console prompt returns
BUS ERROR.

At work I do not have this problem.

Any suggestions? Not sure what I did or didnt do to make root the only ID
that can use Netscape.

Thanks in Advance

Chris
