Subject: Re: CentOS, Firefox, and Java Plugin
Apparently I don't have the java plugin browser installed. I've tried
to install it using the rpm.bin file at
<http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=java.com>,
but it's erroring out: "/bin/sh: bad interpreter: Text file busy".
If you want to keep it simple, I would not try to install at the same
time the base CentOS OpenJdk RPMs and the Sun RPM.
If you don't care much about control (in the free software sense) on
your Java installation and just need the plugin, I guess you should go
for the Sun RPM after uninstalling the base OpenJdk packages.
Maybe some people on the list have other opinions / tips.
Here's a link on the Centos forum regarding Java:

FWIW - Eclipse IDE 3.6.0 Helios from upstream will NOT work
with the default Centos Java package. So you will need to
install Sun's Java to get Eclipse working on Centos.
