You have a couple of options: investigate SWING support for gcj ( I do not know if it is supported or not ) , or install the sun java package via apt. Make sure if you install the sun java you remember update-alternatives to select the sun java javac jar etcetera :)
I have the sun java for my J2ME playtime project and it works fine. Linc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
