Re: Problem with java on linux.

["Lakshmipathy T.S" <laksh@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

I am trying to install kaffe (but I was prog'g in root login) but later tried at
user level but still.
In RH5.2 it was going smooth but RH6.0 it just doesnt happen!.
I tried JDK1.2 pre a bzip2 file from blackdown but no luck

Can u tell me where can I get guava ?
Help needed to get some JDK running

Thanks
Laksh.
