Please use j2re1.3 and j2sdk1.3 (which now is an add-on to the RE
package) from incoming.debian.org.  
The new packages install into /usr/lib/j2se/. and
/usr/lib/j2se/./jre is a real directory.

We will move the packages onto our mirrors as soon as we have updated
the add-on packages (Java3D, JMF, ...).

Please install or generate locale files at least for en_US.

I don't think so.

Yes, we will test the next release on 7.2.

Problems with key configuration

2001-10-31 Thread Ray Morehead



Have a problem with Blackdown 1.3 running on 
Mandrake 8.1.  It runs like a champ.  Only problem is that none of my 
keys are recognized!  In other words, when I try to type, nothing 
happens!.  This happens with all applications I have tested, including 
the demos supplied with the JDK.  There are no errors when this 
occurs.  It does not happen with any other (KDE, gnome, etc.) apps.  
In fact, it does not happen with the IBM JDK (although it has its own 
set of maladies... which is why I'm pursuing this.)   I've used 
the default (US) keyboard configuration on Mandrake's install.  I wonder if 
anyone has had similar problems and knows of a 
workaround...
