I'm running Fiesty Fawn and wanted to add Java. When I type it into Adept it lists a million different files. What the exact name of the file I need to select and install? Thanks.

Re: How do I add Java?
Do you want the JDK or just the runtime environment? Also, do you want Sun's Java 6, or the open sourced IcedTea Java 7?Asus G1S-X3:

Re: How do I add Java?
The java packages you are looking for are most likely the ones needed to access java content on the web. These are installed as part of the 'kubuntu-restricted-extras' package.

Re: How do I add Java?
Where would I find these 'kubuntu-restricted-extras' packages. Would I add them manually into the third party repositories in Adept? Thanks.Comment

Re: How do I add Java?
If you have the Proprietary drivers for devices (restricted) and Software restricted by copyright or legal issues (multiverse) repositories selected in Adept Manager | Adept | Manage Repositories then just open Adept Manager and search for kubuntu-restricted-extras and mark it for installation and click on Apply Changes.Windows no longer obstructs my view.
Using Kubuntu Linux since March 23, 2007.
