Using Java in Linux--Please Read!

lazybum · 06-19-2003, 10:50 AM

I installed Java for Linux (I'm running RH 8.0) and it won't work at all. My primary reason for installing Java is so I can run Limewire, but I can't even use it in Mozilla. What should I do?

have you followed the instructions and created a symlink from the pluing to your mozill aplugin directory?

also, don't bother with limewire, it's crap. http://gtk-gnutella.sf.net http://gift.sf.net

have you added the [java install directory]/bin/ to the $PATH variable ????

And have you set JAVA_HOME variable so limewire can find java?

Best feature of Limewire I found was the automatic uninstall...but each to their own.

lime wire is lame,
go for the gt-gnutella

and as for the automatic un-installer, i think it "forgets" to uninstall the spyware
