which java tells me that my java is installed in /usr/bin/java while I installed my 1.4.1 JRE in /opt/java.sun. And java -version tells me that my version of java is 1.1.8 . Apparently, I have two versions of java installed on this machine. How can I explicitly point bash to use the 1.4.1 one instead of the 1.1.8 one? > > (PS: Off topic, but I need limewire because I badly need to download > > Harry Potter ;-) > > My advice: go to a store and buy yourself the video (if it's HP1 of > course).

And as it is impossible to find the english version of the book in my country, I have no other choice, but to download the PDF version of the book. I won't ever dare download a vide with my dialup.

I get "Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: limewire: Depends: j2re1.3 but it is not installable". Tried it on both, Sarge and sid repositories.
