Also, since Sun's Java was mentioned earlier, here's a more "correct" way of installing it in Lucid:
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner' sudo apt-get update sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre If you just want to run a single application in Sun's Java, you can run: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java -jar /path/to/program.jar else, as Philipp Lies wrote, type: sudo update-alternatives --config java and select "/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java" (probably the selection labeled "2") -- Fonts in Java application are distorted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/520515 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
