Way too complicated and risky! My solution is |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
1. Install 64-bit Firefox (compiled) for my main browser. |
| 13 |
2. Install seamonkey-bin (32-bit) and change the R settings to use it as |
| 14 |
the browser instead of the default. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
So ... everything except Java now works in Firefox and searches work in |
| 17 |
R. If something else needs Java, I guess I can use seamonkey-bin for it. |
