I too had a problem with getting applets to run with b3 (and b2 for that matter) but recently found a fix. If you get a floating point exception whenever Java starts up (that was my symptom) then check to make sure your X server is running with >256 colours. 256 colours (i.e. bpp 8) is apparently insufficient. When I fixed up my XF86Config so I could 'startx -- -bpp 16' the problems went away and Java works great! Hope this helps! ---- Ken On Fri, 11 Apr 1997, Pedro Giffuni wrote: > Gang-Ryung Uh wrote: > > > > Hello, > > But, I can not run any applet on this fancy looking new web browser. > > Am I missing something?
