There is no native port of the JDK for FreeBSD Alpha. There probably isn't a lot of work required _if_ you know some Alpha assembly, but noone has had time or has stepped up to the plate to do this as yet. I believe Compaq are the only ones who have a JDK for the Alpha, it may work under OSF1 emulation, but I couldn't be sure. There was a Linux port for a while, but it has pretty much died. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Phone : (801) 796 6999 Information Technology Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
