I really need to use Java for remote access via logmein.com, how can I do that with 64-bit Firefox? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Probably you simply cannot :-( If the applet there is not working with openjdk (6 or 7) you are pretty lost. Then you need to install 32bit Firefox but you would loose the other 64bit plugins if you have some installed.

Hey, you are silently ignoring my second sentence ;-) "If the applet there is not working with openjdk (6 or 7) you are pretty lost.' I wasn't more explaining because in my experience a number far beyond 50% of applets are not working with openjdk or icedtea.

Install a separate 32 bit version of the jre, and then link your java library for firefox to that. Its what I do and it works fine. My link looks like: :~/.mozilla> ls -alt plugins total 124 drwxr-xr-x 2 wcn00 users 4096 2008-09-24 10:57 . lrwxrwxrwx 1 wcn00 users 63 2008-09-24 10:57 libjavaplugin_oji.so -> /usr/local/jdk1.6.0_07/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so So your 64 bit firefox will just run applets via a 32 bit java plugin. wcn Andrew Joakimsen wrote:

Firefox 64-bit will not load a 32-bit plugin: LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/lib64/browser-plugins/javaplugin.so [/usr/lib64/browser-plugins/javaplugin.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32] Unless placing it in ~/.mozilla/plugins is different than /usr/lib64/browser-plugins, somehow... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

New subject: SV: [opensuse] Java for 64-bit Firefox

How hard can it be creating a 64-bit version of java :-) They are forcing us to stay on 32-bit on the client side...

Install the 32 bit compatability libs. My firefox is 6 bit and it definitely runs java applets via the 32 bit plugin. wcn Andrew Joakimsen wrote:

Are you sure you are using "Sun Java" and not the OpenJDK that does not work with most applets? And which "compatibility libs" -- I do have ¨compat-32¨ installed on the system in question.

You could try executing Konqueror and use its web Browser, but you will need to open this in a 32bit X-term Scott Andrew Joakimsen wrote:

How can I have installed both 32-bit and 64-bit Firefox? I think that would be the simplest solution. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
