For what it's worth, I tried to install java on my freebsd-current system today. (my first attempt to install it in a few years). For that, I first have to install the linux-sun-jdk, which uses linux-compat and linux_base-7. Those initial steps for installing went OK, but my attempts to install jdk14 (freebsd-native java) do hang. It seems that they hang when executing the command: /usr/local/linux-sun-jdk1.4.1/bin/java -version On my system (freebsd-current from Tuesday), that prints out some version-info and then hangs. My friends who have a working-java tell me that for them it prints out the version-info and then returns to a shell prompt. I also notice that if I 'ktrace' the above command, it will often (but not always) work right for me, too. At this point I've spent about four hours futzing around trying to understand the problem, and that is about all the time I have for it today. I am not sure if my problem is related to what you're seeing, but I'll probably rebuild my -current system and all my ports before trying to install java again, just because I know someone will yell at me for being lazy if I don't do that. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
