I am using Mozilla 0.9.7 with jvm from blackdown:

~$ java -version
java version "1.3.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build Blackdown-1.3.1-FCS)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build Blackdown-1.3.1-FCS, mixed mode)

I am completely satisfied with it, and certain problems I had with sun's jvm
disappeared. Anyway, the Kaffe jvm is only 1.1, which is a way anachronistic.

What you need is to fetch the jdk or jre (depending if you develop java or
not), from the urls (swiss mirror)

ftp://sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch/mirror/java-linux/JDK-1.3.1/i386/FCS/README-j2sdk
ftp://sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch/mirror/java-linux/JDK-1.3.1/i386/FCS/j2sdk-1.3.1-FCS-linux-i386.tar.bz2
ftp://sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch/mirror/java-linux/JDK-1.3.1/i386/FCS/README-j2re
ftp://sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch/mirror/java-linux/JDK-1.3.1/i386/FCS/j2re-1.3.1-FCS-linux-i386.tar.bz2

to bsunzip2 the tar, and symlink .../jre/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so
into the directory /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins (assuming mozilla is installed from
the rpm).

I have been using java on linux quite often, and find no problems so far with
this jvm.
