View Full Version : Installing java


Heisenberg
Assalam Alikum,

I have installed the latest version of Java from Sun for linux.
It is ended with .bin, now how may I install it and how may I define it to my box, so that I can ask for the version of my java and get the right answer. I get now Kaffe version 1.0 (I don't remember it exactly)

hey :)
well if i recall right you can just go like :
# chmod a+x java-whatever.bin
# ./java-whatever.bin
# java -version (to check the version)

if you wanna use it in mozilla/konquerer follow the guide @ http://linuxiso.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=3
it's the 3rd topic or something.. the site is down atm
/ps: i use blackdown java on gentoo
peace

Mandrake instructions but should work with any RPM based distro "I hope"
