[expert] Mozilla 1.4 can't find java plug-in
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I just installed Mozilla 1.4 on a stock LM 8.1 system. The installation appeared to go fine. When I go to news.bbc.co.uk, I am told that I have to download a java plug- in. I do this, and the plug-in says that it has installed correctly. Now when I restart Mozilla, I get an error message failed to initialize shared library /usr.../libjavaplugin_oji.so. And when I go to the BBC web site, it still says that I need to load the plug-in. If I do-reinstall it, it again says that the installation is successful, but it still says that I need to download the plug-in when I return to the BBC site. Anyone any ideas? Mozilla 0.9.4 works fine (and continues to do so, even after I installed Mozilla 1.4). Doc PS I keep trying to access the reflector archives at linux-mandrake.com, but the site has been accessible since at least yesterday afternoon. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGP 6.0.2 -- QDPGP 2.60 Comment: Key obtainable from servers: ID 0x362912B8 iQA/AwUBPwNBtWnXrLw2KRK4EQJh4QCfciVB8w5dZHa7JXsSHuJ8fjAva3EAoLlk 2PKRkSMnCfWSLhH0tQzxHeaq =3Yoo -END PGP SIGNATURE- Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

(And even more bizarre that it requires a beta release of java instead of real release). It not the release per-say that causes the issue but the version of gcc with which the 2 were compiled. If you will recall, or check the archives, there was a period that mozilla and galeon Had to be compiled using gcc-2.9.6, even though the default for the distro was 3.0 or + because 2.9.6 was the only version supported by any of the java vendors, sun. ibm, or blackdown.
