Re: Sun/Oracle Java

 

Hi there,

I don't use it nor need it :)
Someone already posted on my thread that Lubuntu FAQs (Wiki) need to be
updated according to the link I mentioned (
http://www.webupd8.org/2011/10/things-to-tweak-after-installing-ubuntu.html)
Since I have never used JAVA on Linux, I'm asking those who are using it to
check whether we need to update our Wiki or not?

So, again, please double check this:
http://www.webupd8.org/2011/10/things-to-tweak-after-installing-ubuntu.html

and if necessary, update this:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#Some_Java_applications_don.27t_work.2C_I_want_proprietary_Oracle_Java

I didn't update the Wiki because I'm not sure because I don't use Java :)

Thanks :)
