Hi Stanton, Tks for your advice and URLs # rpm -qa firefox firefox-1.5.0.2-1.2.fc5 I suppose 32bit Firefox running on this FC5_64 box I'm prepare installing the open source Java environment available within Fedora Core According to; http://stanton-finley.net/fedora_core_5_installation_notes.html Java: * Fedora Core provides an open source implementation of Java. See http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc5/test3-latest-en/#sn-Java 16. Java A free and open source Java environment is available within this Fedora Core release. It has three components: GNU Java runtime ("libgcj"), the Eclipse Java compiler ("ecj"), and a set of wrappers and links ("java-gcj-compat") that present the runtime and compiler to the user in the same way as other Java environments are presented. # rpm -qa libgcj ecj libgcj-4.1.0-3 libgcj-4.1.0-3 ecj not installed yet. # rpm -qa java-* java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-40jpp_83rh The above package has been installed. # yum search java*compat java-1.4.2-gcj-compat.x86_64 1.4.2.0-40jpp_83rh core Matched from: java-1.4.2-gcj-compat ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/rhug/java-gcj-compat java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-src.x86_64 1.4.2.0-40jpp_83rh core Matched from: ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/rhug/java-gcj-compat java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-devel.x86_64 1.4.2.0-40jpp_83rh core Matched from: ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/rhug/java-gcj-compat java-1.4.2-gcj-compat.x86_64 1.4.2.0-40jpp_83rh installed Matched from: java-1.4.2-gcj-compat ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/rhug/java-gcj-compat java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-devel # yum search ecj Loading "installonlyn" plugin ... eclipse-ecj.x86_64 1:3.1.2-1jpp_13fc core Matched from: eclipse-ecj * End * Where can I find 32 bit eclipse-ecj ? Shall I remove; java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-40jpp_83rh java-1.4.2-gcj-compat.x86_64 and install; java-1.4.2-gcj-compat java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-devel Would the removal of "java-1.4.2-gcj-compat.x86_64" causing the OS working unstable? Or just leave it there? TIA B.R.
