You can download Oracle's Java (which was Sun's) from Oracle directly.
You will have to create an account with them. You can use the same
account for reading the java forum and downloading other software like
their famous DB.
Simply download. JDK6 is still a binary as were all Sun packages

I'm not an Ubuntu user, but I think I read somewhere that sun's jdks
packages have been removed from repositories. Don't know more details, but
you should be able to install them by yourself... download and install

For what it's worth, I run Solr 3.5 on Ubuntu using the OpenJDK packages and I
haven't run into any problems. I do realize that sometimes the Sun JDK has
features that are missing from other Java implementations, but so far it hasn't
affected my use of Solr.
