Neither is going the way it should and I've followed the instructions flawlessly for both types of pkgs from java.com,- plus alot of other links. I've tried it 7 ways to sunday-=> considering i'm currently having alot of java jre jdk jvm JAVA! problems,.. everything i do (alien) runs into dependency problms. Am I also having permission errors?? sounds like it {i'm using and Dell Dimension 8200 series, Linux Mint 10.10 [meerkat] fresh install} someone please help and put an end to my misery. Thanx In Advance Also i should add intalling sun-java6-jre via apt-get/aptitude/synaptic [.deb] i get a long output of java dependency errors..which leads me to the option of rpm..tried to convert to deb with alien and it wants to use java-- Javas not working i'm lost
