Hi,

I've firefox-bin-3.5beta4 installed on my AMD64 Gentoo system.
Typing about:buildconfig as URL it's saying it's a 32bits application.
For java(-applets) to run, I need a 32 bit java.
GenToo installs 64 bit java jre/jdk on my system by default.
How can I install a 32bit version in addition (just for firefox and
might be opera)

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut.
