Hi William,

java a look at update-java-alternatives (i think that's what it's
called, don't have an ubuntu box here to check). look at
/etc/alternatives, you'll probably find that the java link there
points to gcj or some other java. incidently, you can install sun java
directly from the repository using apt on ubuntu, there is no need to
manually download the bin file from sun's website.
