Dear list, Which jdk should be used for the current version of linux-firefox (2.0.0.5)? (6.2-STABLE) I have tried linux-blackdown/jdk14, linux-sun/jdk15, and even the latest linux jdk 1.6 from the Sun website. linux-sun/jdk15 reports security vulnerabilities and won't install. All of the above 3 report successful plugin installation after making the symlink to libjavaplugin_oji.so in the /usr/local/lib/linux-firefox/plugins directory, but fail to run website Java applets or show correct installation on the Sun Java test page http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml The jdk1.6 linux binary installer hangs the browser on the test page. Which is the most suitable JVM for the linux-firefox port? nspluginwrapper port is installed. Are any other ports required, for example linuxpluginwrapper? (this last one doesn't seem to make any difference). Obviously I would prefer to use the native Firefox, but there are stability and audio issues with the Flash plugin that make this difficult. regards Chris
