Since you're running 3.1-STABLE, you really want the newer ELF release, which contains some bugfixes for window placement. Also, since you're running an ELF system, the compiler will create ELF binaries by default (as Steve pointed out), which I suspect is causing the problems you are seeing. Trying to make a port that can deal with 3.* a.out JDK is gonna be tough for anyone, so I recommend using the JDK that is appropriate for whatever binary format is 'standard' on your system. [ Unfortunately, that means I need to get the ELF release to work better on pre 3.1-STABLE boxes, but soeone will get to that sometime soon. ] Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
