I hope I don't need 1.4.2 anymore. They moved it, I mean java...completely and utterly moved it from /usr/lib/java.version to /usr/java/rel.version No wonder the links were broken. Not only that, the library name was changed. Oh, I hasten to point out that *something* erased the contents of everything in the /usr/lib/java.version directories except the folders themselves so I couldn't simply repoint the links. Anyhow, I did get it working. I just wish "they" wouldn't diddle-fart with stuff without warning us of possible side-effects, and I wish Firefox would 'just work' like Konqueror does with the default locations of java when it installs....but that would be too much to ask :) At least this isn't Windoze where I couldn't fix it without paying Redmond for an upgrade and re-registering and entering a 1000 digit security code off the DVD.
