I d/l'ed j2sdk-1_3_0-linux.rpm.bin from java.sun.com. It installed in
/usr/java/jdk-1.3.0. Now here comes the problem. I followed Chris Molnar's
directions in the README file in the kde2.1Beta2 directory in the
Mandrake-devel/unsupported directory. I had to force everything and nodeps
some of the rpms. On the kdebase rpm it gave me an error of cpio:unlink at
/usr/share/kdm/user/pics (or something very similar) and then stopped at
that point. Let me backtrack a little. Ever since I did a live update from
Mandrake 7.1 -7.2 Konqueror has not worked. Previously I would get a SIGSEGV
11 fault and have to use gmc as my file manager. Now when I try to start
Konqueror it gives a fault of Bad inode/directory and then does nothing. Is
there a way to fix this? Do I have to remove all the KDE rpms and start
fresh? I would just like to get this working. I really liked Konqueror when
I had it running on one of my other machines back in the Kleopatra beta
version.

If you download jdk-1_2_2_007-linux-i386.tar.gz from java.sun.com,
you'll find that untar/gz'ing them extracts the files into a directory
named jdk1.2.2, not jdk-sun1.2.2. Though I suppose there's nothing to
stop you from renaming the directory since you have to manually tell
Konqueror where it is anyway.
It is an unfortunate truth that Sun is still blatantly snubbing Linux.
Even the README's in the tarball refer you only to win32 and Solaris
installation instructions.
I sincerely hope that the KDE team can come up with a way to use the
Java environment with the tools IBM has provided, since they are
enthusiastic in their Linux support.
