Now that I installed Java from the DAG's repository, it gave me a
version jre2-1.4, while I wanted 1.5 (which I realised later.)

Now i did a simple Google search.
Found a good one at rpm-pbone.net and simply upgraded the package.
The RPM was originally made for mandrake, but worked here like a charm.
No problems whatsoever.

Moreover, I needed the Java installed for applications like Azureus
and Limewire.

I again did a google search for Azureus RPM, and found one , again
(built) for Mandrake.
I installed this one, and wow! 
It is cool. Works good.
No crashes experience until now.

I love RPM ;-)
