Johnny,
Thought I'd try these out for you. Looks like a prerequisite is missing?

BTW: the contrib repo seems to be non-functional for some time now.

BTW2: have migrated my "production work" :-) (mail, stock trading,
doing some spreadsheet stuff) to C5. After minor configuration
adjustments/irratations for the plain old copy of C4's /home, it's
working well. Using FF 3.0b05, the real java stuff. A little flaky
there. Java console in FF worked fine until this A.M. Haven't treid to
"finger" it out yet.
