I can't agree more with you. Distros don't usually install the JDK or JRE, that's a licensing problem I suppose but Sun should do something about this. I mean even Mac OS comes up with the JDK installed !!
Now, I thought that java was installed with Open Office !! I remember installing Star Office 5.2 a long time ago and some sort of java (1.1 or 1.2 don't remember) was installed. Is it different with Open Office? -- Pierre ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elias Assmann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Pierre Neihouser" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2002 12:10 PM Subject: Re: Java in Mandrake 8.1 > On Thu, 4 Apr 2002, Pierre Neihouser wrote: > > I believe you should look for java all lowercase.
