I've slightly revised my procedures now that I have actual F8 
running.  I don't think that nspluginwrapper needs to be removed 
anymore.  I have both icedtea and Sun's Java installed and they both 
work as runtime, compiler and plugin.  I posted the procedure to my 
website;

http://www.knutejohnson/sun-java-on-F8.html

I have not tried this with x86_64 only x86.

Here are the steps for those without browsers :-).

How to get Sun's Java running on Fedora 8


1)Download the Sun Java Linux RPM from java.sun.com and install it.

2)Make sure that you have version 1.7+ of the jpackage utilities 
installed, then download and install the JPackage sun-compat RPM 
(this handles your alternatives) from jpackage.org

	java-1.6.0-sun-compat-1.6.0.03-1jpp.i586.rpm

2)Fix the Xinerama bug with

	sed -i 's/XINERAMA/FAKEEXTN/g' 
/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03/jre/lib/i386/xawt/libmawt.so

3)Install a link in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins-wrapped to the java 
plugin link in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, that link should have been 
installed when you installed the sun-compat RPM above

	cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins-wrapped
	ln -s /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so

4)Download and install compat-libstdc++-33

5)Select the Java version you want with the alternatives program

You will probably see two Java plugins if you check your browser with 
about:plugins.  It seems to work fine.  Use the alternatives program 
to select the appropriate Java installation.
