    No dice... I even tried it on an x86 machine and got nowhere... I'm
    wondering if it ever compiled. :) I expect the openoffice project to
    pull a mozilla... be completely unusuable for a number of months and
    then slowly creep into focus. Just have patience...

    *Giggle*... yeah... I highly doubt it'll be all that much better running
    in SPARC/Linux ot be honest. It's one of those things that I'll
    probably have to test-run on several machines and come with a minimal
    requirement for sanity recommendation (machine-wise).

    Heck, I don't know that I'd even recommend mozilla on anything slower
    than the fastest sun4m's (faster SS10/SS20)... it's slower than is
    comfortable on my SS20...
