Only java (Sun) is there. I have tried to install msjava. First I want to say you that installation fails by default because it is doesn't like win2000 version. You need to set winxp instead. Yeah, I know installer tells you after that stupid unobvious error message that "Install complete" but you don't really trust Microsoft, do you? Second, installation fails with clean WINE set to winxp version at XML-related stage. It isn't very obvious why but I (maybe) will investigate this later. For now, good news: I managed to install msjava with IE and now I see "Microsoft VM" with related options here: Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Settings; Actually everything is very simple. First, run: WINEPREFIX=~/.ies4linux/ie6 winecfg Set there winxp version and click OK. Now run your installers: WINEPREFIX=~/.ies4linux/ie6 wine msjavx86b3805.exe WINEPREFIX=~/.ies4linux/ie6 wine MSJavWU_8073687b82d41db93f4c2a04af2b34d.exe Please note then each installer will segfault twice but this will not stop the installation. Just ignore this. After successful installation run IE6. Make sure to disable Sun Java and then restart IE. Now can test your msjava installation. In IE's adressbar type this URL: http://gemal.dk/browserspy/jvm.html ...And press Enter. Scroll the page down and you will see information about your Java VM. In my case I see there: Support: Your browser support JVM! MajorVersion: 5 MinorVersion: 0 BuildNumber: 0 BuildIncrement: 3810 Description: Microsoft (R) VM for Java, 5.0 Release Please note that above only works with Microsoft JVM. Sun JVM is not supported! This is good because you can be sure that you really running msjava if you can see something in above fields on that page. NOTES: You need to use winxp version otherwise msjava will crash frequently. Fortunately it is not that bad with current WINE (if you don't know in (much) older WINE versions there was ugly problems if you try to use win2000 or above with IE). In my opinion sites without Sun Java support are completely brain-dead. Microsft JVM is not supported on Microsoft Windows since SP1a. But if you really need msjava you should be able to use it if you follow howto above. In fact, msjava runs just fine for me, even somewhat complex applets can work without any trouble. In case of any problems with msjava you can ask me for additional help. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
