Downloaded 3 versions:

j806_mac64.zip BETA   - installed and runs on my AVX MacBookPro
j806_mac64.zip NONAVX  - installed and runs fine on my older iMac i7
j806_linux64.tar.gz NONAVX   - no joy on my slightly too old Ubuntu/Linux

In (nonavx) linux - jconsole fails with:   Illegal instruction

I think maybe the wrong binary was included in the nonavx .gz file - e.g.

MBpro:javx jkt$ diff ~/Downloads/nonavx/j64-806/bin/libj.so  
~/Downloads/javx/j64-806/bin/libj.so

Indicates that the two libj.so files are identical. Whereas the libj.dylib 
files between avx and nonavx for Darwin are quite different.

This seems to be a tedious point to get right.
