Fwd: (Incident Review ID: 403998) GETJAVA: comment: JRE for YellowDog Linux community

[Hex Star]

it doesn't work in any of the browsers in my experience however, it
seems to be missing a essential part of the JRE the normal JRE has for
browser functionality (tried with Konquerer and Opera and Mozilla, all
of which were pointed to the Java location or had the included plugin
for the browser loaded, however Java applets failed to load, but would
load manually outside of browsers in KDE environment)
