I'm trying to get J602 installed and running in Ubuntu Linux 10.04 
(actually, in a prototype configuration where Ubuntu is running as a 
virtual machine in VWware Workstation on a Windows XP host).

I downloaded and ran the sh command. Next, ran the jwd command only to 
discover that I needed a Java environment already. (I don't think the 
brief installation instructions said anything about that.) So got a jdk 
installed, namely, OpenJDK. Now I can run jwd.

However, if I try Studio > Demos, I immediately get a wdhandler pop-up 
window "error in: jijs demos button" with details saying, "could not 
locate dll GL: find dll ('could not locate dll',y) 13!:8]24."

So I next looked at the wiki and read the page about Linux OpenGL. Not 
finding any entries for /usr/lib/libOSMesa.*, I installed libosmesa6 
(Mesa Off-screen rendering extension.)

After restarting jwd, exactly same problem.

Information as wiki requests report on:

   ls -l /usr/lib/libGL.*
[nothing]
   ls -l /usrlib/libGLU.*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2010-07-15 10:02 /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1 ->
    libGLU.so.1.3.070701
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 456380 2010-04-28 22.43
     /usrlib/libGLU.so.1.3.070701
l
   ls -l /usrlib/libOSMesa.*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2010-07-15 13:31 /usr/lib/libOSMesa.so.6 ->
   libOSMesa.so.6.5.3
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2410024 2010-04-28 22:43 /usr/lib/libOSMesa.so.6.5.3

I presume the problem is the absence of any libGL.* files. However, in 
/usr/lib/mesa I do locate libGL.so.1 and libGL.so.1.5.070701.

What's going on here?
