[gizmo@localhost ~]$ limewire
Starting LimeWire...
Java exec found in PATH. Verifying...

Something went wrong with LimeWire.
Maybe you're using the wrong version of Java?
(LimeWire is tested against and works best with with Sun's JRE, Java 1.4+)
The version of Java in your PATH is:
java version "1.4.2"
jdkgcj 0.3.1 (http://www.arklinux.org/projects/jdkgcj)
gcj (GCC) 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)

So I am using java 1.4.2...
but it don't run... i've already asked a friend, but he cannot tell me why LimeWire won't start.
CAN YOU HELP? -thanks in advance!

Hi,

there is a bug in our java-detection script. It will be fixed in the next version (ETA next week or so). If you do not want to wait, do the following:

1. open a terminal and become root
2. cd /usr/lib/LimeWire
3. rm -f runLime.sh
4. wget http://www.limewire.org/zlatin/runLime.sh
5. chmod a+x runLime.sh
6. chmod a+r runLime.sh

after that Limewire should start properly.
