***************************************************** NCSA Mosaic 2.0.1 ***************************************************** The final version of NCSA Mosaic for the Macintosh 2.0.1 was released Monday, October 2, 1995. We will continue to keep the comprehensive Known Bugs page as up- to-date as possible . To help us do this, please email us with any problems you find that are not related to those listed on the known bugs page.

Please enter 'anonymous' as the name and your complete email address as the password. site: ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu location: /Mosaic/Mac The NCSA ftp server is being overloaded with requests for the Mosaic software. Because of this, you may get an error message. Please wait a while and try again when the server may not be as busy. As an alternative, you may wish to try one of the following unofficial mirror sites. USA: site: sunsite.unc.edu location: /pub/packages/infosystems/WWW (all versions) Australia: site: miriworld.its.unimelb.edu.au location: /pub/clients/ (all versions) Europe: site: ftp.luth.se location: /pub/infosystems/www/ncsa (all versions) site: ftp.sunet.se location: /pub/mac/Mosaic (mac version) /pub/pc/windows/www/Mosaic/ (pc version) /pub/www/Mosaic (X version) ***************************************************** DECOMPRESSING THE ARCHIVE ***************************************************** To UnStuff & UnBinHex NCSA Mosaic we recommend that you use StuffIt Expander. The expander is available at ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu in the /Mosaic/Mac/Helpers/ directory. Important Note Some people are having problems starting up MacMosaic. If MacMosaic crashes before the splash screen is displayed, it is possible that there is a problem with your system. We now know that when the Apple Shared Library Manager(ASLM) is deinstalled improperly, when any application asks the MacOS if ASLM is present, the system will crash. To deinstall the ASLM run the ASLM installer. Hold the option key down and the install button should change to a deinstall button. Click the deinstall button. It is possible that this problem may exist with other MacOS extensions that require an installer. If MacMosaic won't start up on your machine, we recommend that you reinstall the system. ***************************************************** Current Known Problems ***************************************************** Sometimes menus are not updated properly when editing custom menus. There are still pagination problems in tables. Does not work with Type Reunion. Sometimes the menu bar gets messed up when you start up the PowerMac version. (This seems to be a MacOS problem. I have seen it in other applications besides Mosaic.) There are still some pagination bugs that have been fixed in version 3.0 (coming soon!). Incorrect table HTML will sometimes crash MacMosaic.
