already fixed, wait for beta2 next week or go download development
builds.  BTW the Debian package of blackdown jdk 1.3 is broken (at
least as NB is concerned), /usr/lib/j2sdk1.3/jre should not be
symlink.  If this is your case then as root do

  rm /usr/lib/j2sdk1.3/jre  mv /usr/lib/j2re1.3 /usr/lib/j2sdk1.3/jre
 ln -s /usr/lib/j2sdk1.3/jre /usr/lib/j2re1.3

This is of course a workaround.  Blackdown notified me that the new
.deb will fix this problem.
