19 i can confirm that konqueror reads the java executable installed as does
20 openoffice. the problem is that konqueror is not fully compatible with all
21 the sites around the net: there are still a great deal of devs that continue
22 to ignore acid standards and still do stupid things compatible with only
23 iexploder or firefox. and the bad thing is that these ugly devs just disable
24 some advanced stuff if it the browser detected is not firefox or iexploder
25 (as gmail and this drives me a little mad).
