It is packed as rpms however and includes the real, 100% compatible java too, so the install seems to be distro friendly as long as the distro uses rpms. However, I noted when I went after it again last week, that there are now .deb friendly versions too. My biggest bitch is that the mirror I pulled it from the last time seems to be throttled to about 300 baud someplace, so it took much of a day to pull that 180 megs. That sucks to put it mildly. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
