System name:		whirlwind
Type and version:	KN02ca 7.6G (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		PMAG-DV 

What were you trying to do?
	Use the new version (2.2) of Mosaic installed this morning
	and view a GIF via an external viewer.  In other words,
	I clicked on the business card on my home page and wanted
	to display the larger version of it.

What's wrong:
	Mosaic can't find the external GIF viewer.  The following
	message gets written to the xterm where I started Mosaic from:

		sh: xv: not found

	Also, on an unrelated note:  I'm not sure that this is a bug,
	but this new version of Mosaic seems to spawn many more new
	windows as you bounce from page to page, at least when
	compared with the previous version of Mosaic.

What should have happened:
	The viewer should have been found.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
