Re: trouble using IBM 1.4.1 jdk for ppc on Debian
Hi,
If you search the archives here you will find a mail I sent to Ben and a few
others a while back that describes an environment variable you can set to
force the JIT to recognize your processor (lie to it and tell it is is a 604e
system).
I have a dual G4 machine and it now works fine.
I think (but I don't remember anymore) that you should try somehting like:
export JITC_PROCESSOR_TYPE=6
And that may help.
Give it a try and let me know if it does.
