I fixed my Java and it works fine in 10.04.  It appears there are some
check boxes in the original install phase that need to be checked.  If
you don't check them you can still hit next for some reason and it will
attempt to install but spit back an error.

Open package manager and search java.  completely remove all green
boxes.

Once you've done that.... go back and select install java6 by sun.

There is an additional package that will not be automatically selected
as a dependency called "sun-java6-plugin"   I selected that as well.
This package is the plugin to get Java to work properly in Firefux.

Hit apply.  It then installed without popping up any boxes asking you to
agree to sell your soul or whatever is in those TOS things that no one
ever reads.

After you're done you can go here to test.

You should see a bunch of boxes with 4 colors in it.   If not.. Java did
not install correctly.
