I just issued the command (as root) : urpmi phoenix and watched the text scroll by. No problems whatsoever. Then, I ran Phoenix, it seems a bit meager and not noticeable faster then Mozilla, but certainly slower then Konqueror and Opera. Then, trying to view a java-*enriched* page, it stopped and prompted me to download java, although java already resides on the box. I did that nevertheless ( must be done as root ! ) and again without any glitches. Now I have two java plugins ;-) However, I intend to get rid of it again.
