Hi all, We are trying to arrange Ubuntu and other Stalls or Tables at GNUnify . Which is too short notice activity . So we got 1 room for various Projects. Like Ubuntu and KDE . Something like FOSS.in project stall or FossConf Demo stall . But we hardly have any time to contact other Project / Community representative to be there . We have few volunteers who will show demo on that stall . They will also give information about respective community . If some one is willing to volunteer please contact me . We have 2 days .

Which JDK I should use ? As I have very limited Space for my Live CD . What is diff between these packages 1. free-java-jdk This is a different sdk but is likely related to GCJ (GNU's Compiler for Java), but has different maintainer. 2. gcj 3. java-gcj-compat and java-gcj-compat-dev The GNU's Compiler for Java needs the above two packages plus additional packages to run Java. (GCJ is the Compiler for Java and GIJ is the interpreter for Java). I would recommend, installing sun-java5-sdk (now that it is Free Software (licensed under GPL2; you can install the source, as well). Also, there's another alternative, known as Blackdown Java. This was created, when Sun's java was not under GPL. If you have Adpet / Synaptic search for Blackdown Java. Thanks . Finally , I install free-java-jdk package . Work for small HelloWorld java program . Need to be tested for more advance stuff . A small suggestion: Since this thread is related to your Ubuntu for CS, I would request you to do the following. Let the distro be as it is. Since, you plan to give development tools to CS students, you could create and Apt-ON CD for them, and distribute it with the sources of those tools on that CD. Imagine, the advantages they get! I can think of doing it this way. Considering, that you have unlimited data transfers on your internet connection, you could use apt-get to *download* (set -d option) all the necessary packages. You can then create a document on how to use the CD for installing software and put it in the same CD. Yes, this add on CD idea is next phase in our Project. So package which are too big eg. Eclipse . will be on add on CD . Also I expect students will use this Distro as Live CD for first few weeks . Once they got enough confidence then they will install it . In that case install+addon CD will give more advantage to students . Could you suggest more packages/tools !!! That CD will be like /sone pe suhaga/.
