Kaffe is installed on most systems by default. It's a Java
compiler/Runtime made by someone. I don't think it has been worked on
in a while and it out of date as too its features (I.e no 1.1, etc).
Located in /usr/bin it probably comes before the jdk 'java' program you
installed. The easiest way I've got around this is to change
/usr/bin/{java, javac, appletviewer} to /usr/bin/{java.old, javac.old,
appletviewer.old}. This will still keep the old programs around if you
ever want to play with Kaffe. To make sure you're using the jdk you
DLed type java -version. If it says Kaffe something, then you're still
using the wrong one.
You can also use the 'which' command to see which program you'll run by
default. You'll need to include your jdk117v3/bin dir in your path in
order find the new binaries automatically. Read the README included in
the distro for more info.
