Hi, If you would like to try the blackdown jdk1.3, you could add the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list # for blackdown jdk ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/linux/devel/lang/java/blackdown.org/debian potato non-free Then do a apt-get update; apt-get install j2sdk1.3 Other mirrors are available at http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html for potato and woody. Java3D and some other packages are available too. Hope this helps, Eric
