This version of the sun jdk (or any for that matter) does not work with a gcc-3.x compiled mozilla. There are three options: 1) compile mozilla (and galeon) with gcc-2.95.3 2) use the latest blackdown jdk which IS gcc-3.2 compatible 3) compile sun java yourself. The package is called sun-j2sdk. I personally do 1 because at the time I set it up the blackdown jdk was not available for gcc-3.2 yet. Option 3 is rather complex so I believe it is not a good solution either. Option 2 is probably the best solution. Paul -- Paul de Vrieze Researcher Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://www.cs.kun.nl/~pauldv
