Thanks again.

I tried to use sun-java5 packages in edgy (which version is
1.5.0.07-0ubuntu1) and
got a bunch of "java implementation
error<http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=233304>"
and stucked. I'm trying to downgrade the
java back to version 1.5.0.06. (bad luck ~~~ XP)

Thanks anyway.
