downloading with unbuntu

cypress42 · 11-14-2005, 12:09 PM

I have tried several different ways to download Java but everytime I try, it goes to the download screen, fills the bar the entire way but never loads onto my computer. I mean to say that the bar is full and the time is at 00 but it never changes over to say complete. All I am trying to do is download Java so that I can run Limewire (which does download but cannot run because of the lack of Java). Is there something I can do to get the download to finish? I am running unbuntu.

isn't the jre in the ubuntu repos? you should be able to use synaptic if it is.

Believe me, I've tried. The problem is that my computer is beginning the install but will not complete it.
