I've just installed J yesterday on GNU/Linux (a.k.a Debian), including SUN Java, and jw so far works fine. The operation should be doable by GUI. Here are the steps: (no root privileges are needed to do this) 1. Download the appropriate package from http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp 2. make a directory somewhere, e.g SUNjava in your home directory, ~/SUNJava. 3. copy there the downloaded program and run it. This creates one directory (let's say jre1.6.0_64, so it is ~/SUNjava/jre1.6.0_64) 4. modify one line in ~/j601/jw from java <the rest> to: ~/SUNjava/jre1.6.0_64/bin/java <the rest> ("Terminal stuff" line for this step would be: sed -i "s#^java #~/SUNjava/jre1.6.0_64/bin/java #" ~/j601/wd ) That's it. jw should start up J's IDE using SUN's Java and work fine now. Notice that this whole installation does not change Java that the rest of your system is using, nor does the above installation get recorded in your package management system. I hope this helps.
