Hi,

    I suspect you need to wrap the java_vm binary.  I used a similar
trick in the past to run it via aoss.  I'm not on my laptop at the
moment so this is all untested, might just work can't think why it wouldn't.

Find and change to your java_vm directory ("locate java_vm" should help)

For me is:

cd /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin

sudo mv java_vm java_vm_orig

sudo touch java_vm
sudo chmod a+x java_vm
sudo vi java_vm

Insert and save:

#!/bin/bash
exec optirun64 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java_vm_orig

Probably need to restart your browser to cleanly exit any currently
running java_vm.  Let us know if it works :)

Regards,
Steve
