Ok, since you have more than one JDK and JDK's can be used as JRE's you 
may have to specify which version you want your system to use. If you 
run the following command you'll know your available JVM's and also the 
one you are currently using:


java-config --list-available-vms

The one with an asterisk at the beginning will be the one you're using.

On the other hand, you should make sure whether you installed Java with 
browser-plugin capabilities. I guess you installed sun-jdk and sun-jre, 
so running this you'll have the info you need:


equery uses sun-jdk

equery uses sun-jre

equery is in gentoolkit (this time it's truly there :-P).

HTH,

Blackdown was pulled in when I emerged openoffice.
As you can also see, nsplugin is in place, but I guess somehow the 64

I had it working previously on this system, before I had to change the

Anyway, I have since recalled the nspluginwrapper package since last I

There are no 64 bit java plugins :(

  


Bad thing... Have you checked whether you can use a 32-bit version? I 
haven't worked with a 64-bit system, but I've heard there is some 
backwards compatibility by which 32-bit programs can be run on 64-bit 
systems.

I also switched to Sun a good while back.  Blackdown was not updated for

The only thing I recall not liking is the fetch restriction on it.  You
have to go to the Sun site and download the file and put it in distfiles
manually.  Other than that, it works fine.
