I'm not sure how apt distinguishes between the two that are so similar like this. This looks to be the Java 2 sdk version 1.3r2 which is newer than 1.2.2r4. Can't guarantee but think it would work. apt-get install j2sdk1.3 or j2re1.3 for the JRE (no dev tools just runtime) > jai-lib_1.0.2-1_i386.deb > jai-sample_1.0.2-1_all.deb > java3d-re_1.2-2_i386.deb > java3d-sdk_1.2-2_i386.deb > jmf_2.1.0.99-beta2-1_i386.deb > > it looks like java3d-re_1.2-2_i386.deb is the correct package. what do > people think? This is the Java version of OpenGL for 3D programming. Hope this helps, Eric :-)
