My guess is that I have j2sdk-1.4.1_02-fcs from java.sun installed. However, the blackstone is for j2sdk-1.4.1-01. Installation details shown below. The java plugin shows up in Mozilla, but if I link to something that uses java Mozilla hangs. Do you see anything I missed? I guess I either wait for a gcc 3.2 from sun or I rpm -e the sun version and install the blackstone version.
