Bruno Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 If in about:plugins you see the plugin . . . go to another site that requirers java and see what that site says . . All your java's are i386: /usr/lib/SunJava2-1.4.2/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so/usr/lib/SunJava2-1.4.2/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so/home/dale/j2re1.4.2_06/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so/home/dale/j2re1.4.2_06/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longgone Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 ..... Bruno ,,,,, ....I have come to the conclusion that in SuSE there are software d/ls that require a reboot in order for them to complete the installation ... I say that, since now, after a break (shut down) and rebooting .. the java works in Pogo .. I shall file this away for future info....

longgone Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 ???Really now ..... well here is a good one for linux guru research ... SuSE is the only OS 'nix wise that I have installed that I could go to the Pogo web site and have it work (play games) right frrom the DVD ... all the others needed to d/l java ... in SuSE using Konqueror no problem .... but then I d/l, installed Firefox and we both know what came next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longgone Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 ... Agatha Christie must be around somewhere .. ..last question and then I can put this thread to sleep ... want to change the boot distro but have not done this in Drake 10.0 before ... went into MCC >boot>boot loader > and tried to change it there with no luck .. it is listed /dev/hda and SuSE lives on hda10 so I changed the indicated boot to read /dev/hda10 instead of /dev/hda ,,,, but ,, it did not work so obviously I did not do something ... or at least not all of something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
