Hi,
I have a problem with the "help.start()" and the search engine on a AMD64 :
The search engine use the java plugin but the java plugin is not 
available for the jre.1.5 ...

I have a linux box : fedora 4 on 64bit and R2.1.1
When I start the search engine, I had the message that the java plugin 
was missing.
So I try to install manual the java run time jre-1.5 for the AMD64, but 
the plugin was missing
( http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=568127&tstart=75 )
So I instaled the J2RE blackdown 1.4.2
I obtain the plugin for the 64bit and make the link.

When I restart R and the search engine, the plugin 1.4.2 correctly 
reconnize by mozilla
( about:plugins in the URL windows), and I don't have any more the 
message for the missing
plugin, but, then I try a search, mozilla freeze and I have to kill it :

####################

Making links in per-session dir ...
If '/usr/bin/firefox' is already running, it is *not* restarted, and
    you must switch to its window.
Otherwise, be patient ...

I am not a "system administrator" and It's my home computer (so no help ...)
So I need your help ;-)

- For the AMD64 R users : have you the same problem ?
- If yes : How you solve it ?
- If it's not possible to solve, is it possible to  find an alternative 
solution (like to acces of the search engine from an
other computer (windows, linux 32). I don't care about java plugin on 
the mozilla 64 bit, I just want the R help !!!

Thanks.
L. Buffat
