Did you install the RPM (.rpm) or the tarball (.tar.gz) ?
If it is the tarball (tar.gz), the icon does not get created automatically. You will have to create it yourself. |
it was a direct download from the netscape site, .tar.gz then I just did tar -zxvf netscape-i386-pc-linux-gnu-installer.tar.gz and it ran i got installed, after that i dont know how to get the icon on the desktop or any link to it that will make it work, i have like a week working with linux i am pretty new to all this
|
yes it is a tarball .tar.gz, i dont know what to do next, please help

I also installed Netscape and wondered where it went.
In a terminal window try /usr/local/netscape/netscape should work... cheers |
I found the icon netscape inside
/usr/local/netscape/netscape but it ask me what do when i ckick on it then i select run and it runs, but when i copy the icon shell to the desktop then it doesnt work it opens just like text i guess it loses its properties outside its folder |
