13 i've heard that the openjdk project (the opensource java, based on the
14 source code realeased by sun) has created a 64bit plugin named iced tea that
15 is able to run almost any java applet around. i've still got to test it
16 myselft but it should work. the only problem is that you'll have to find an
17 overlay that has the openjdk and icedtea packages since it is still not
18 included into main portage tree.
