>Description:
Java Webstart is a system to let you run applications by clicking on 
them, they are automatically downloaded and executed. The problem is 
that in the above configuration is does not work. 
	
>How-To-Repeat:
Execute	/usr/local/linux-sun-jdk1.4.2/jre/javaws/javaws

>Fix:

Partial fix:

#!/bin/sh
   JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.4.2
   JAVAWS_HOME=$JAVA_HOME/jre/javaws
   java -cp $JAVAWS_HOME/javaws.jar:$JAVAWS_HOME/javaws-l10n.jar \
      -Djnlpx.jvm=$JAVA_HOME/jre/bin/java -Djnlpx.home=$JAVAWS_HOME \
      -Djnlpx.deployment.system.home=$JAVAWS_HOME \
      -Djnlpx.deployment.user.home=/home/ron/.javaws \
      -Djnlpx.home=$JAVAWS_HOME \
      -Djava.security.policy=$JAVAWS_HOME/javaws.policy \
      com.sun.javaws.Main "$@"

But it still doesn't let you run javaws applications, because "the 
operating system is not supported"
