Submission + - Linux Blamed for Win/Mac Only JavaFX
pallmall1 writes: "The Java.Net Editor's Daily Blog claims that poor multimedia support within the Linux operating system is the reason that JavaFX is not available for Linux or Solaris users, stating
"Would holding up JavaFX on 98% of desktops in hopes that Linux will get its multimedia act together really be in the interest of Sun or Java? If so, hold your breath and think "everything should be in Ogg" over and over again until you get your wish. The rest of us have better stuff to do."
The Editor of the Java.Net site did not clarify how this also managed to prevent the Solaris release of JavaFX."
