"1. Newsbyte: keep stirring things up. I find it helpful." I am of the same opinion, but I could be biased. ;-)
"2. With respect I don't think you can both a) claim to be installing like a novice user and b) insist on keeping your existing Java install to be used and recognised. " I am not. That's why I say a noob wouldn't do half of what I tried. In my opinion, I rank above average in computerknowledge (though not being an expert on every topic), but if I encounter difficulties, you can be sure a noob will have it too. As for b); as I said, I did try several things, one of which was like the suggestion on the freenethelp wiki, and another one was uninstalling the 1.5 and downloading the full install. "IMO the average novice user will choose the full install with Java and that will work. I'm assuming you have Java 5 (still in beta). I'm sure the Windows installer will be updated soon, and Java 5 hasn't been out that long..." I tried the full install and got the warning it was corrupted (and it wouldn't install neither, thus). Yes, I saw it on dev it was being updated. In the meantime, I also got around the problem, and I don't think the primary cause of the prob is with the JVM, nor with the recognising of it on itself. (see dev maillist). "3. And for those who have some slight knowledge and do want to run / keep the latest Java with a Windows install they can follow the instructions at: http://wikiserver.freenethelp.org:14741/InstallingFreenet" Indeed, but that, as I said, didn't work neither in my case, probably due to the things I describe in my post on dev. "4. You may have heard of this Wiki. Some kind, clever person set it up..." I agree. :-) "I've found it very useful although the user login (through Preferences?) seems to be broken right now..." It is? Well, maybe that kind person will have a look at it. That said, strictly speaking you don't need a user login to make edits; it's free accessable for everyone (unless you want to go in as admin). In any case, I wouldn't be surprised if that clever person was going to implement the next and improved version of the wikiserver as soon as it will come out, which will be, hopefully, very soon. _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
