Thanks everyone for the help. I went and got the 64 bit version from Sun. I installed it per this tutorial: http://home.bredband.no/gaulyk/java/tutorial/javaredhat.html#Installing%20the%20Software However, I'm not quite sure how to set my $PATH value.

Re: Java on AMD64 Question
Sun doesn't ship the Java plug-in on AMD64 as of 1.5.0_1. Sun employees gave mixed answers to the corresponding bug reports in their BTS. Sometimes they say it might be fixed in 1.5.1 and others that "it's a bug in the documentation because we won't support the Java plug-in and Java webstart on AMD64." You can vote for this bug http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4802695 or one of the dupes :) Chris Wakefield wrote: H Patrick.

Also, if you use Eclipse, avoid Sun's JDK (Blackdown's included) because the JIT has a bug that's triggered frequently by the editor causing Eclipse to crash. I found IBM's JDK 1.4.2 to be the most stable on AMD64, though it has its own bugs (not so severe as the others on this platform) and no public bug tracking system to report them. There is a newsgroup but there's barely any traffic there, though I've seen an IBM employee answering once. In brief, I'm using IBM's JDK 1.4.2 and I can't complain because I least it gets the work done (and I use it constantly).
