Good afternoon -- I'm new to the list, but first looked through the archives and found nothing on this issue.
I'm running Fedora core 3 on amd64, with kernel 2.6.9-1.667. There is no javaws bundled with Sun's amd64 JDK1.5.0, and the i386 javaws bundled with Sun's jdk1.4.2_06 consumes 100% CPU and never displays the Web Start dialog. This led me to blackdown.org. Love your work. I downloaded and installed the blackdown jre (j2re-1.4.2-rc1-linux-amd64.bin), & the blackdown jdk (j2sdk-1.4.2-rc1-linux-amd64.bin). In both cases I find that, unfortunately, javaws behaves the same as Sun's javaws from their jdk1.4.2_06; that is, it appears to consume 100% of CPU, and never displays the Web Start dialog. Has anyone else out there used javaws under Fedora for amd64? If so, what versions of the relevant software did you use, and did you have to engage in any trickery or magic to get it to work? Much TIA.
