It sets us free. > I do not know if your problem is similar to my problem with www.elluminate.com. Please see the thread with subject: "Does Iced Tea Web Start work on Fedora 10? What about Fedora 11?" I found I could install the 32-bit Sun JRE, jre-6u14-linux-i586.bin, from Sun.com. I could tell Firefox to use the javaws binary after doing this install, to run the stuff at www.elluminate.com. Similarly, I found I could get Java Web Start to download the EVOPlayer when I told Firefox to use the javaws binary from jre-6u14-linux-i586.bin. The EVOPlayer started running, at which point I stopped it as I probably am not authorized to go any further with it. Please note: I am Fedora 10, X86_64, uname -r 2.6.27.25-170.2.72.fc10.x86_64 I do not know if I would see the same results on Fedora 11 as I see on Fedora 10. Is it proper etiquette for a person to reply to this mailing list and Cc a particular person? If it is proper etiquette, I'd suggest you ask Deepak Bhole. From his answers to my question, I think he is involved in this code.
