Hi Russ!

Probably others will answer better, I have/do no Java developement currently.

These look promising:

First of all found these with:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/search.html

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/scsl/build-linux.html

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/jre/install-linux.html

I am just up too late and a bit nervous about the two interviews I
have tomorrow so I do silly things.  Yet, I hope they are helpful.

Good Hunting!
