Hi,
I got the JDK 1.1 thanks....

I am able to compile the classes/applet, but when I run appletviewer i get a
nullpointer exception error in sun.motif classes....

I do not have libXm.so i.e. motif library but I am using "lesstif-0.79".

I downloaded JDK 1.1 from http://www.csi.uottawa.ca/~kwhite/javaport.html

There was no need to fiddle with .java_wrapper script but it was cribbing till I
made a link to compat 2.1 libs.

Thanks in advance for help.

Prashant.
