I run into links, etc., and they don't work. It was frustrating two years ago. It just didn't work. On my machine still it doesn't, but maybe this is because I haven't tried to fix it in a long time, so... Here's a link with some Java on the page: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/GaussianFunction.html I get the typical white box with a jigsaw puzzle piece asking me to 'Click here to download plugin' and then a message about JRE missing. I currently use Blackdown but notice this 'virtual' JRE is Sun. That all seems a bit strange. lightning ~ # eix -I jre [I] dev-java/blackdown-jre Available versions: (1.4.2) 1.4.2.03-r14 {nsplugin} Installed versions: 1.4.2.03-r14(1.4.2)(01:56:19 AM 06/02/2007)(-nsplugin) Homepage: http://www.blackdown.org Description: Blackdown Java Runtime Environment [U] virtual/jre Available versions: (1.4) 1.4.1 1.4.2 (1.5) 1.5.0 (1.6) 1.6.0 Installed versions: 1.5.0(1.5)(10:30:16 PM 06/01/2007) Homepage: http://java.sun.com/ Description: Virtual for JRE Found 2 matches. lightning ~ # I thought that before I invested too much time I'd ask if there is anyone who makes pages like the one above work and what you have installed.
