JAVA plugin for linux-seamonkey
I have the linux-seamonkey port built and I am trying to add the java plugin. I installed the java/diablo-jre15 and made a symlink from /usr/local/diablo-jre1.5.0/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so to /usr/local/lib/linux-seamonkey/plugins/ as well as $HOME/.mozilla/plugins yet about:plugins in seamonkey isn't showing java support. I even tried the diablo-jdk15 libjavaplugin_oji.so to no avail. Michael Do you Yahoo!? Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!

now it's openoffice.org-2
I know some of you have labeled me a troll. I don't think I am a troll in pointing out to others who may be interested in FreeBSD not to look to it. I believe just liking freebsd despite it's issues isn't advantageous to the community. I've documented the problems with mozilla. Now, with the latest STABLE branch of sourse and ports, openodffice.org-2 after 10 hrs of comiling fails: Error while making build_instsetoo_native. Now, if you cant have the best wordprocessing app and one of the most popular web browsers in FreeBSD can you really expect people to embrace it. - Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!

freebsd desktop
Regarding my earlier email Do not install FreeBSD as a desktop I don't care how long I have been using FreeBSD, or yadda yadda or yadda when I cvsup ports, update the databse, and install www/firefox and go to a website I expect firefox's javascript or whatever to work.

How come when I 'make install clean' in www/firefox (yes my ports are updated correctly) (and just for one example) javascript dosen't work on certain websites but for you it does. This shouln't be ahardware issue. I also see no Makefile declarations to make javascript work for the individual that said I should look at the Makefile closer. Actually, in looking at the current port version of www/firefox there are no -D options. I am using FBSD 6.2-prerelease, my 'world' is compiled correctly, my ports are updated. Firefox should work on my box just like it works on everyone elses box Unless we want to admit that having the latest version of a port installed or using the STABLE version of FreeBSD isn't a good idea. - Cheap Talk?

Java JRE (latest) | Mozilla 2
Hey group. I'm using the latest Firefox2 (non-linux) and have the latest diablo-jre15 port installed. I'm finding that the plugin for firefox causes firefox to freeze consistently. For example, when accessing myspace, as soon as I click on Myspace's mail link firefox will freeze immediately everytime. When I turn javascript off in firefox then all works fine (except to send mail in myspace you have to have javascript enabled). I tried the FreeBSDfoundations JRE package but it said it required a past version javawrapper. Is there a more stable version of JRE in ports thats more stable? Michael - Cheap Talk? Check out Yahoo!

Firefox2 lets you disable java (as opposed to javascript) so you could try that and see if that helps, but it seems like a shot in the dark with too little info to me. OK, it looks like it's a javascript issue. With JAVA loaded myspace works fine. With javascript loaded firefox freezes. I'm guessing this is myspace's issue. - Cheap Talk? Check out Yahoo!

ndis | ifconfig
I am trying to get a WPC54G (linksys) wireless PCMIA card working in 6.1. I made the kernel module using ndisgen and loaded it with kldload. kldstat confirms the module and ndis.ko and if_ndis.ko is loaded along with the WPC54G driver made from ndisgen (bcmwl5_sys.ko): However, when running ifconfig it says ndis0 interface does not exit.

wpa_password not included in 6.1
I'm using FBSD 6.1 and have ndis0 configured. The wireless router I need to connect to is doing WPA-PSK TKIP encryption. I have installed wpa_supplicant but when configuring /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf I have to define 32-bit psk password from wpa_password. But, I see wpa_password isn't included in FBSD 6.1 What are my options? Michael - Check out the all-new Yahoo!

OK thanks. I'm also assuming I will have to download the windows WPC54G driver and convert it using ndisgen. I didnt see the WPC54G v2 card listed in the hardware compatibility list.
