Thanks, but sadly, it gives this error with galeon:
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/usr/local/j2sdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/ppc/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so
[/usr/local/j2sdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/ppc/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so:
R_PPC_REL24 relocation at 0x0d63d1c4 for symbol `ect' out of range]
It seems the plugin contains non-PIC code. Kevin, do you still build the
PPC binaries, or where should I report this?
