OK, I am busy working so I'll have to read the whole thread later, |
| 22 |
maybe tonight. However both the forum thread and your response do |
| 23 |
bring up some questions. Thanks! |

I have both firefox and firefox-bin installed. Both tell me that the |
| 26 |
JRE isn't installed. Using your eselect command it appears that I |
| 27 |
don't have a plugin. Am I correct? I Assume I'd see a name under one |
| 28 |
of those headings? |

Indeed, it appears that nsplugin isn't enabled which would be my first |
| 39 |
issue to solve. I know I had it turned off at one point when I was |
| 40 |
using a chroot to get around this problem but that's far too difficult |
| 41 |
to live with on a day-in/day-out basis. |

Anyway, how do I get it built to be similar to Volker's sun-jdk-1.6 |
| 44 |
setup. I cannot seem to get the flag enabled: |
| 45 |
|

lightning ~ # emerge -pvDuN sun-jdk |

These are the packages that would be merged, in order: |
