Hi,

After having my fill of pop-ups in galeon & mozilla stating I have no java 
plug-in I tried to get said plug-in.

First, Netscapes accursed site, where the plug-in is, doesn't like galeon or 
mozilla. Usually I couldn't get it to start the download and if it did start 
after unpacking I got an error with no explanation.

Next, I tried Sun's site and would get stuck in a loop of page reloads after 
answering their license question.  I finally was able to ftp the whole Sun Java 
SDK 1.3.1_01.  After unpacking into /usr/lib/jdk1.3.1_01 I changed the 
alternatives for jre, java, javakey and jar to use the new stuff.  I also 
copied the java plug-in from /usr/lib/jdk1.3.1_01/jre/plugins to the mozilla 
plugin dir.

Both mozilla and galeon crash rendering sites with java.  I can open the 
javascript terminal in galeon.  Trying to open galeon's java terminal crashes 
it instantly, no error messages, the browser closes itself.  I can run java 
from an xterm but don't have any test program's for it.

Does anyone have any clues on how I can debug this further?

TIA
scott
