We'd like for it to run more. I'd like to suggest a two pronged approach to your current problem: Prong 1: File bugs in bugzilla.redhat.com. Commit to understanding and working through any issues with us so that one day we can run any Open Source software that is important to you. This requires commitment and effort on all our parts. Prong 2: Install SUN's JDK using the Jpackage technique -- not Sun's RPM, and use "alternatives --config java" and "alternatives --config javac" so you can get your other work done. Thanks! AG
