SUSE always has screwed up the Java implementation.  Do you know the
reason why SUSE/Novell can't install Java where it belongs?  When I
get it from the source it installs to /usr/java/jdkxxxxx.  It is easy
to update when The Project releases an update and it "just works" with
no hassle.  SUSE java implementations have always been problematic/non
functional.  I've gotten so I just install it from Sun and put the
real installation in front on the PATH env variable to escape all the
nonsense SUSE adds to Java.

I would vote to have SUSE install Java where it belongs (as defined by
where The Project installs on Linux).  Then we wouldn't have to see
all these threads on this list.  Linux is the premier platform for
Java development and it is a pitty SUSE always screws it up.
