i just download the j2re bin from java.sun.com and unpack it to a "random" directory - say /usr/share/j2re1.4.1 or something... the way to link it to mozilla/netscape is by going to the /usr/local/mozilla/plugins directory and doing $ln -s /usr/share/j2re1.4.1/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so <enter> that will create a symbolic link to the plugin... to be technical and all i guess you can create a sym link /usr/bin/java -> /etc/alternatives/java -> /usr/share/j2re1.4.1/bin/java of course you can't do that in one shot, and you don't have to do it to use Yahoo! chat, but that is the "way" to run java programs on your machine ( at least it is on mine )...
