Well, I guess it must be the X server that you are using. The XF86_SVGA and XF86_S3 have no problems with Java. You can verify that it not a FreeBSD problem by making a Xwindows session with xwin (the windows 95 xwindows server) on another machine (set the display variable and run netscape remote). If it does not display properly on xwin then it most likely is a setup problem in Netscape. Xwin worked with Java even when FreeBSD 2.1 was not able to do it. > > Mike > > ~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~ > Syn-Work Media, Inc. | WWW Development & Hosting | Life Safety > http://www.synwork.com | Systems Integration | CCTV > mike@synwork.com | Voice/Data/Fiber | Access Control > Flaq on IRC | Dukane Distributor | BICSI/RCDD > :|:|:|: Powered By FreeBSD :|:|:|: > Turning PC's Into Workstations > ~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~'`^`'~*-,._.,-*~ > ---- || Shoppers Network BEST PRICES, FULLY x86 COMPATIBLE & FAST!!! || PO BOX 16627 Cyrix 686s now available! || San Francisco, CA 94116 Email - info@shoppersnet.com | ------------------------------> WWW - http://www2.shoppersnet.com -------------------------------> WWW - http://www.shoppersnet.com/shopping
