Do people use Java Web start with Ubuntu? I'm running Hardy and I did get it to work, but it does not work out of the box. I wanted to run the example at http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/javawebstart/ demos.html I have Sun's Java ... not the one that comes with Ubuntu.
To get this to work I had to 1. As root go to my /opt/sunjava6_u3/jdk1.6.0+03/jre/lib/i386/xawt (which is just where I installed java) and issue sed -i 's/XINERAMA/FAKEEXTN/g' libmawt.so Reasons for this I somewhat but do not fully understand. 2. Install libstdc++.so.5 .... apparently the 5 is important. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
