Seems to work for me. FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE-p7, jdk-1.3.1p8_1 built with native threads, Mozilla 1.3. I do, however, have problems with the NIKU time reporting applet that I have to use at work. With the FreeBSD browser and JDK I get error messages about not being able to get some data source. It works with Linux Mozilla (1.2.1) and linux-sun-jdk-1.3.1.06_1, and I remember it used to work with FreeBSD JDK 1.3.1p7. This is a vague problem, I cannot be sure if the applet is still the same as it was when I was using FreeBSD 1.3.1p7, and I *think* I was using the classic VM for the plugin then. Other than this I haven't noticed any irregularity for patchset 8. -- Regards, Georg.
