Hi! How did you go about 'installing' usually it's just the reverse for an 'uninstall' If you used an rpm, you simply type:
rpm -e filename
So something like:
rpm -e java
Might be what you need. But it really depends on what you used to install.

Cool

You're welcome, too bad my advice was too late I was going through some of the 0 reply posts and wondered why this one hadn't been touched...

Oh well, at least it's all working now...

Cool
