I've tried almost everything to get java to work on firefox 0.8, which was included with dsl. In the tools section firefox even says 'Javascript Console', but when I try to vist one of my favorite sites that use Java it says I need to get the Java plugin. I know that there is a tar.gz version in the repository, and I triedto gunzip it, but that led me no where! Do I need a newer firefox version or am i missing something incredibly simple like a '-k' or something after gunzip.
Thank you in advance,
mike

Open MyDSL panel, then click system and choose jre*. I think It's also located under UCI...
