more java problems on x86_64

I finally got frostwire to work with lib32-jdk in the AUR, but I can't get it to work in firefox. I thought I could use nspluginwrapper to install it, coppied libjavaplugin_oji.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, but nspluginwrapper wouldn't recognize it. Anyone got a java solution that will run in apps and in firefox?

Icedtea is doing an OK Job for me, I just added the repo and used the binary from here http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=46878

Can't say it is perfect, but it does work on a lot of sites for me.

Re: more java problems on x86_64

Well not pretty but a bit of googling and this works not tested it completely, but using icedtea which when

java -version
openjdk version "1.6.0-internal"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-internal-b10)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0-b10, mixed mode)

Now to run Frostwire
cd /usr/share/frostwire/
java -ea -Djava.library.path=. $EXECUTABLE -jar FrostWire.jar

Not pretty but works guess you could make a script to do this, really unsure as one I don't use it, know nothing about java but it started ;-)

Perhaps it will help, found in this thread here tried the edit but didn't get much joy http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showth … 8&t=578759

And icedtea does the bits in FF I need

Re: more java problems on x86_64

If you're using the lib32-jdk, you will also need a 32-bit browser to go with it.  Here is a link that will get you to one.  If you need the "athlon64" version, check here instead.  With the 32-bit browser versions you can link to the lib32-jdk plugin, and, of course, use the Adobe Flash plugin 'natively' (no nspluginwrapper).

Good luck!

Re: more java problems on x86_64

is there a jre plugin in lib32-jdk, am I missing something here. looks to me like /opt/java32/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so should work but when I put it in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins it's not recognized by either the 32 bit swiftfox or nspluginwrapper.
