Oddly enough, this is exactly what I did ;-)

I've sent kernel patches to Linus for this which should make it into one
of the next kernels, if Linus allows.

Until then, for the impatient ;-), the diffs can be found at:

ftp://ftp.lantz.com/pub/java/kjava.patch

They are against the recent 1.3.98 kernel, but *should* apply to most
kernels without much difficulty (no promises, though)....


While all other OS's are TALKING about direct support of Java Binaries in
the OS, Linux is doing it! ;-)

REAL PORTION of Microsoft Windows code:
while (memory_available) {
eat_major_portion_of_memory (no_real_reason);
if (feel_like_it)
make_user_THINK (this_is_an_OS);
gates_bank_balance++;
}
