About linux_base6 and linux_base7

[Lin Jianfong]

Hi,

This is on FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE box, I installed linux-mozilla and linux-sun-jdk13 from the ports collection on the machine. The kernel is enabled for linux_base7 emulation. This Linux version Mozilla 1.1 recognized the java plugin OK from "Help->About Plug-Ins", the problem is java_vm crashed with HotSpot error whenever I tried to open webpage with java applet embedded. This simply leaves Mozilla frozen and I have to manually kill the process. Linux flash, realplayer, acroread, all work fine with mozilla.

Doing a little bit of browsing, I have seen several people having similar problems in the past. Most suggested that linux-sun-jdk1x is simply not compatible with linux_base7 and only works with linux_base6. My question is, is it possible to have both linux_base6 and linux_base7 emulation on the same system ? Since linux-java needs linux_base6 to work while linux-mozilla needs linux_base7.

I could switch to FreeBSD native Mozilla 1.1, but then flash, realplayer, acroread plug-ins will no longer work, since they are plugins for linux native mozilla.

Any suggestions appreciated.
