in /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://ph.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted
universe multiverse

is that correct?

after an sudo aptitude update, i did:

sudo aptitude install sun-java5-jdk

and I get:

Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched
"sun-java5-jdk"
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.

Which is why I asked which repositories (complete line
for /etc/apt/sources.list please, if possible) I might need since I
already had multiverse enabled and I'm getting the error above or, with
apt-get:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/public_html/demo/web$ sudo apt-get install
sun-java5-jdk
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

E: Couldn't find package sun-java5-jdk

Thanks for any pointers :-).  It's not a big deal.  I don't do a lot of
java these days, but it'd be nice to have it available when I might need
it.  And it's always good to have it on there so I can practice.
