Guys, I need your help
I have both Fedora Core 6 and Ubuntu Edgy installed on my 64bit laptop. Both in
the latest flavors with all patches installed.
But my Firefox 2 pukes every time I come across a web page with any java flavor
on it. In but Ubuntu and Fedora.
It crashes so fast not even the smoke has time to escape. If I've ever seen the
Linux equivalent to the blue screen of death, then this is it - although it's
only Firefox that dies.
But still not being able to pass by any page with some java on it, is as pain.
It basically forces me to boot up in Win$lows when ever I need to browser the
internet.
I have attach the last bit of a stack trace that resulted from running:
$strace -o stack_firefox.txt firefox
http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.4/demos/plugin/applets/Clock/example1.html
The console output is usually as follows:
Java process: caught exception from sun.plugin.navig.motif.Plugin.start
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
/usr/lib/jvm/j2re1.4.2/lib/amd64/libawt.so: libXp.so.6: cannot open shared

INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Could not read ack from child process
System error?:: Resource temporarily unavailable
It seams that module libXp.so.6 is missing, but I have no idea where to get it:
$ sudo rpm -query --whatprovides 'libXp.so.6'
no package provides libXp.so.6
$
RPM Search doesn't list this for Fedora Core 6 either. Apparently this library
is seriously antiquated.
So what am I to do?
Best Regards
Jan Petersen
