There's this nice ppa, that provides an oracle-java-installer, similar to the flashplugin-installer or mstcorefonts. It does not provide the java packages itself, but downloads them for you. Additionally it updates all the alternatives, so that it is also used. http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html
OpenJDK-7 has still some deficiencies compared to Oracle-Java, especially in the GUI part. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~enterprise-ubuntu Post to : enterprise-ubuntu@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~enterprise-ubuntu More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
