[QUOTE="Family_Dog, post: 113846, member: 82"] The Gods are still not with me... ;) This is what I get: ----- eric@eric-TravelMate-2500:~$ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin && sudo update-alternatives --config java [sudo] password for eric: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package sun-java6-jre is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source Package sun-java6-plugin is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'sun-java6-jre' has no installation candidate E: Package 'sun-java6-plugin' has no installation candidate ----- Thanks for your patience with a total Linux newbie, but everyday I feel I am learning something new... like how to now work with "Terminal" :) -F_D [/QUOTE]
