You can fix the problem with the following: sed -i 's/XINERAMA/FAKEEXTN/g' /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03/jre/lib/i386/xawt/libmawt.so Above should be on one line and adjust the path to your JDK installation. I don't know what else will be messed up by doing this but if you need more info, search around for the error message in Bugzilla. It took me a while to get the JDK to work and the Java plugin to work. I posted the steps the other day but in case anybody else reads this post and is having trouble, here are the steps I used to get Sun's Java up on F8rc3. How to get Sun's Java running on F8rc3 As root - 1) Download the Sun Java Linux RPM from java.sun.com and install it. 2) Fix the Xinerama bug with sed -i 's/XINERAMA/FAKEEXTN/g' /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03//jre/lib/i386/xawt/libmawt.so Save a copy if you want to restore it to original. 3) Put the link to /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03/jre/plugin/i386/ns7libjavaplugin_oji.so into /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins 4) Install compat-libstdc++-33 5) Remove nspluginwrapper Now you should be able to compile and run Java applications, run Java Applets in Firefox and load and run Java Web Start programs. -- Knute Johnson Molon Labe... -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
