FWIW, I've (personally) been more interested in the 1.1 stuff, and I hope to re-roll the 1.1 release with the new bugfixes that have fallen out of the 1.2 work. However, I have to wait for a new copy of Motif/Elf to arrive, which supposedly shipped last Friday.

It did, but we're hoping that a new release I've about to make (as soon as Motif shows up) will fix these bugs.

JDK 1.1.8 and 1.1.7 runs swing just fine. You can get swing from Sun here: http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/ Make sure you get the 1.1.1 version which will run on a 1.1 JDK. My Netscape 4.5 runs swing applets without any (visible) problem.

Shouldn't have to do anything, although having the swingall.jar file in your classpath will probably really speed up download times for applets that use swing. Running swing applets isn't very efficient at this point since none of the browsers that I know of support java 1.2 yet.

Even so, Swing applets (or applications for that matter) run faster with JDK1.1 than they do in JDK1.2, for a variety of reasons. JDK1.1 + Swing is significantly faster than JDK1.2 + Swing (assuming you're using the correct version for each side else it won't work). JDK1.2 added a number of 'extensions' to both the language and Swing components that cause it to be much slower. Yes, JIT's will speed this up, but assuming you have a JIT in 1.1 and in 1.2, the 1.1 system will be measurable faster.

Can you/will you submit this as a PR to the FreeBSD bugs database? Steve Price has been very good about committing the previos PR's submitted, and even if he doesn't get to it someone else might. That way, your work can be shared with all FreeBSD users. :) Thanks!

Someone the CLASSPATH isn't set that netscape is using to point to whichever Jarfile 'Japplet' exists. I'm not an Applet person, so someone more knowledgable than I will have to answer, but you may be able to figure out how to set netscape's CLASSPATH for a particular applet.
