Dear folks, I am trying to run viavoice under mandrake 8.0. I have downloaded the packages from the IBM web page and installed without problems. I have created an user (Francisco) and put it them as default user. I have also installed java from sun, but..... The problems start when I try to run any of the main programes; for example these are the results for vvstartenrollment: # vvstartuserguru Francisco Starting ViaVoice User Guru Java must be installed for ViaVoice User Guru to work. Please wait while Java initializes... Exception occurred in main() of java.applet.Applet java.lang.NullPointerException at com.ibm.speechapps.userwizard.UWiz.main(UWiz.java:123) Any idea? Thanks in advance for your help. Francisco Alcaraz Murcia (Spain) -------------------------------------------------------
