Hi, sorry for not having answers to your other questions. For Java, I also downloaded the one from IBM. I filled the form with random things and used an email from jetable.org; it works well. The downloaded jre can then be processed by "make-jpkg", from the package "java-package". Note that you need the 32 bits one, as your G5 runs in 32-bit mode (which is usually slightly faster than 64 bit mode). By the way, Java comes from Sun, not Adobe.
