As far as I know there is not a port of JDK2 for Linux. Check www.blackdown.org to keep updated.
What I did was download the Sun JDK2 .tars(for solaris) from www.javasoft.com (I think it changed to java.sun.com ???). The unpacked it in a safe? location and Now am reading the DOCs and all that fun stuff to try and make it work by hand work. It does seem that difficult in my mind ( of course people tell me I need help). Did mean to start a run on the JDK2 for Linux... Rod.. > -----Original Message----- > From: Timothy C.
