I'm not sure whether something is wrong with this package or with my
system config.
Here's what happens...
$ java -version
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM warning: Can't detect initial thread stack
location
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
...
The kernel has "COMPAT_LINUX"
It's a i386 machine running NetBSD-current (1.6ZK)
Setting JAVA_HOME doesn't help
mk.conf has "PKG_JVM=sun-jdk14"
These are the binaries from Sun...
j2re-1_4_2_04-linux-i586.bin
j2sdk-1_4_2_04-linux-i586.bin
So I have some questions...
Should I be reverting to 1.3.1 at this point or does anyone have this
working in a stable fashion?
Do we pay a performance penalty for running java in Linux compatiblility
mode?
Are we at Sun's mercy when it comes to having a native JRE or are there
alternatives that work?
Thanks,
Louis
