The fix:
1-When you run netscape, use the -install command line flag, this will
allocate
a complete copy of the colormap to netscape, however, your screen will
get an
annoying "pallette flash" or shift when you move the mouse from the
netscape
window to somewhere outside or vice versa.
2-Run netscape with the -ncols <N> command line flag, and netscape will
start up
and only use the number of colors you specify with <N> from the
colormap.
3-Run netscape with the -no-install option, and hope you dont hit lots
of
graphics intensive pages with zillions of colors.
4-Start your x-server in a different mode to support more (or maybe
less) colors.
Hope this helps,
Morgan
