i dont know the direct answer to your question as i dont use FC/RH. do you have any issues on using the binary jre libraries provided by sun/ibm/blackdown? i am using the files installed by the jdk 1.4.x rpm on my mandrake installation and copied the installed files[1] over to my arch installation so i can also have java there without downloading anything since i dont have a usable internet connection at home. both works as i can launch eclipse on each installation. now as for the driver problem, if you already have a working jre then you have to make sure that the java library containing the driver is in the classpath. some scripts do some manipulation to include them in the script executable but it is good if you double-check sometimes. ciao!
