The problem may be that Ubuntu uses GNU java, not Sun Java. 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.

 Dear mailing list,
 
 I have sent an email to the frost and freenet mailing lists
 multiple times now.
 I don't know where else to ask. For weeks I have been
 having the
 problem now that Frost won't start.
 
 I am using linux and gnome. When I start Frost I am asked
 which
 version of of freenet I am using and I choose darknet 0.7.
 After
 clicking OK I only get as far as initializing
 mainframe. I waited
 for like 20 minutes.
 
 I ran the debug version which didn't provide any
 helpful hints in the log file.
 Actually no (relevant) entries.
 
 I am behind a router. Freenet is working OK, I can retrieve
 pages, so
 it must be a frost problem.
 
 Is my configuration file screwed up? I redownloaded the
 frost.zip and
 extracted it again and it still won't work.
 
 I want to participate in free speech but I don't know
 where to get
 help but on this mailing list.
 
 Who could kindly help me, please?

2008-06-18 Thread Mr. Flibble
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.
