You don't have to remove the GNU Java, just install Sun Java
somewhere and make sure that all the executables from Sun JDK are in
the path. I usually do it with the "alternatives" command. E.g.
(assuming Sun JDK is installed under /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10/):
alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10/
bin/java 1
alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10/
bin/javac 1
alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10/bin/
jar 1
alternatives --install /opt/java java-home /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10 1
Haven't used Core 7 yet, but I assume the configuration steps above
should work as well.

Do you think I should remove the java package from the fedora software
manager, and manually install the JDK?
Thanks,

Hi Jack,
All this is *very* strange. Are you using JDK that comes with
Fedora, or did you install Sun JDK? To check do this:
$ java -version
I know in the past the open source Java port included with Fedora
was unusable (especially with the GUI apps), so Sun Linux JDK must
be installed.
