The JRE is included as part of the JDK. I installed 1.4.0 from the /u/honkin/xfer/j2sdk-1_4_0-linux-i386-rpm.bin shell script archive (I think there's also a version with an embedded tarball instead of the embedded rpm). It installed under /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0, and the JRE appears under /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0/jre. Before installing OpenOffice, I had to add /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0/bin to my PATH. After that it installed and recognized the JRE. -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix ICQ 28611923 / AIM abreauj / JABBER [EMAIL PROTECTED] / YAHOO abreauj Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] / WWW http://www.abreau.net / PGP-Key-ID 0xD5C7B5D9 PGP-Key-Fingerprint 72 FB 39 4F 3C 3B D6 5B E0 C8 5A 6E F1 2C BE 99
