You will need to do the following: in the terminal window: sudo apt-get sun-java6-jre (you'll need to agree to some licencing things, but it will work) Now another problem will be that your computer will *still* use the gnu java after that, so you'll need to change the alternatives. in the terminal window: sudo update-alternatives --config java You will be asked to chose which one to use, so select the thing which has 'sun' in the path. This should work, if it still doesn't ask away, i'll try to help. -- http://freedom.libsyn.com/ Voice of Freedom, Radical Podcast http://eng.anarchopedia.org/ Anarchopedia, A Free Knowledge Portal "None of us are free until all of us are free."~ Mihail Bakunin ___ Support mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [freenet-support] Please somebody help. Frost won't start
Sometimes Frost has taken a while to start up for me too, but I don't know why. This mainly happens if I haven't used it for a few months. One thing to check is if there is a dialog box warning you about old versions of keys (I wondered why Frost wasn't starting, and this was buried behind loads of other windows!), but if this is a new install, then this shouldn't be the problem. > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > anonymouser anonymouser > Sent: 17 June 2008 20:59 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [email protected] > Subject: [freenet-support] Please somebody help.
