Hello folks. I've been sitting around playing with these wonderful new kernels, not having a single oops or anything in many moons. Great job! I just have one little thing that should be fixed so people don't get too confused. The default location for the Java interpreter/appletviewer has changed in binfmt_java.c, but not in Documentation/java.txt. The docs still indicate that if the interpreter is living in /usr/local/java/bin that things will work. I know for a fact that this is not so, since that is indeed where my java lives. Changing the behavior is easy, but the docs should probably be accurate... Oh, one more slightly interesting thing about the java support. A symlink from /usr/local/java/bin/java to /usr/bin/java won't work. The JDK must (I assume) be compiled with the hard paths in it. My binary distribution barfs when run from anywhere other than /usr/local/java/bin. This should also probably be in the documentation.
Thanks, Ed
