Description Juha Tuomala 2009-06-16 14:58:08 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.3)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

In Konqueror's settings, there is a field where the jvm executable binary name is set. It defaults plain 'java'.

Even one would assume that executables are searched from default $PATH which in KDE/distros does include the /usr/bin, java in this case still requires the absolute path to start in konqueror.

This is regression to KDE3. World would probably be better place with less crying without java, but unfortunately some people don't agree with that.
