hmm i'll try that... but I don't think classpath is an environment
variable. 

I added 
CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/that/other/path/here/
export CLASSPATH

to my .bashrc

and it gave me the exact same error about java40.jar.

Nope, no classpath in /etc/bashrc or /etc/profile... weird. I wonder how
it's set.

I'll try setting the full path that way... it might be tough though, I
have a cat attacking the cursor on my screen every 15 seconds... she's
sitting on the mousepad, so everytime she moves to go attack the cursor,
she moves the cursor. Must be perplexing ;o)
