there are two serious* compilers for java on linux that I know of... javac
that comes with the jdk and jikes from alphaworks.ibm.com. VB isn't a
compiler; it's an overglorified scripting langauge bundled with a propriatary
IDE. I think what you wanted was a reference to an IDE for Linux... there
are many to choose from and everyone likes their own... so in an effort to
not start a religious war I won't even state my preference. -=Chris

*note: when I said serious I meant "ready for prime time" there are others
in development, but I don't think any of them have left beta.

Does anyone know of such compiler?
