[gentoo-user] Java corruption after power failure

[Nelis Lamprecht <nlamprecht@gmail.com>]

Hi,

We recently had a power failure and after booting up my system which
was shut off abruptly I am having problems with Firefox, Gaim and
probably other prorgams I haven't yet discovered. Whenever I visit a
site which has java my browser freezes up and the same thing happens
when someone tries to send me a message via Gaim. I then have to kill
the effected app.

I've tried recompiling blackdown-jre and blackdown-jdk as well as
recompiling Firefox and Gaim but I still get the same result. I have
turned off java in Firefox for now which allows me to carry on with my
work but obviously I would like to get this fixed.

Does anyone have any other suggestions for me ? What else do Firefox
and Gaim have in common that I could possibly re-install ? ..I've
forgotten how to check the dependencies.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Nelis
