Basically, I want to try the Java version of ICQ, which requires a jdk 1.0.2 compatible java engine. So, I upgraded my video card so I could use 32 bpp rather than 16, tested Netscape (3.0.?) on some applets, all but two of the jkd 1.0.2 demo apps worked fine. So, then I installed the native JDK from http://www.csi.uottawa.ca/~kwhite/javaport.html. I played around with the environment, but never got farther than Illegal instruction - core dumped regardless of what I was attemping, even compiling the demos. So, I decided to try kaffe. the 0.8.4 port compiled cleanly, and downloaded the jdk for the classes.zip file, and approved of its checksum. But, it's giving me the exact same results. I went through the archives, but the only time that this error occured with kaffe was when the newer version of the jdk classes.zip was installed, and I let the kaffe port install the one it wanted. At this time, I'm going to strip out everything javalike that I can find, uninstall all of the above, and start over with a hopefully fresh install. This is on a PPro 150, 64Meg of ram, FreeBSD 2.2.2 with 2.1 compatibility package, XFree 3.3.1, and a Diamond Stealth Video 64 3000, running 1024x768, 32bpp. So, can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong that has messed up everything java except Netscape?
