I find the same problem with using OpenJDK in Fedora 13, jmol shows a black screen (saying jmol in the corner). See: http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/9477 I too have OpenJDK: $ java -version java version "1.6.0_18" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.8) (fedora-41.b18.fc13-i386) OpenJDK Server VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode) Do you know how i can install the rpm equivalent to ubuntu's sun- java6 ? thanks!
