I'm thinking about going back to trying to learn C++ instead because of that... what should I do? :P I'm a poor little python guy, but python isn't going to get me anywhere on the job market (well, except some unrelated help desk job... but I'm already there)
From what I have heard, it is a pain. Because freebsd isn't one of the "download and go" platforms for java, and there are some issues with recompiling the source on freebsd, *I think*. Not positive though, but I remember reading something about silliness of java on freebsd.
Good luck.
ps. Java is slow and ugly. :P

I moved to freebsd recently because Linux (any distro/version) runs like crap on my abit BP6
constant APIC errors in syslog, and random freezes... hated it... freebsd seemed like my only option at that point... and runs fine... I'll figure out the BSD java stuff, was just hoping maybe someone had java/freebsd experience :/

Means you're using the wrong os.... 'pacman -Sy j2re'
If you're a lazy person, Arch is the distro for you...
