It's really a question of of where Oracle is looking for Java. Many apps that use
Java look for JAVA_HOME environmental variable. If so, your .bashrc should
contain
export JAVA_HOME=path_to_jdk_directory
where path_to_jdk_directory is something like /usr/local/jdk1.1
The other common tack is to look for a 'java' program someplace on your PATH
(typically, /bin, /usr/local/bin, etc/). In this case you need a link, eg.
link -s path_to_jdk_directory/bin/java /usr/local/java
By the way, I never use rpms to install the jdk, since that makes it difficult to
have multiple versions of the jdk readily available (I've got three at the moment:
sun's 1.3, Blackdown's 1.2 and IBM's 1.3). It's easy enough to install from
tarballs (.gz files).
