OK, I downloaded j2re 1.4.1 from Sun and installed it, but still got the same error message from the Ximian Desktop installer. Went to Ximian's Web site and eventually found that I need j2re 1.4.2. Got THAT, installed it and I still get the same error message from Ximian Desktop installer. Supposedly I can enter $ java -version and find out which version (my original 1.3.1, or 1.4.1, or 1.4.2) is running, but $ java -version just gives an error message. So how do I ensure that j2re version 1.4.2 actually runs? =====Andrew
