Try running Automatix. Read first before Dl and installing.
I've heard nothing but horror stories about Automatix. I'd recommend
EasyUbuntu[1] instead. In fact, ubotu, the official support infobot
of the #ubuntu IRC channel has this to say about Automatix:
"automatix is a script that automates installation of some items and
has been reported to break your system while doing that, please see
http://help.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation
instead."
Suffice it to say that Sun's J2SE 5.0 Release 7 is already packaged in
the Multiverse repository for Ubuntu. There is no need to install any
RPM package. The only caveat is that you will need to manually
download the jdk1.5.0-doc.zip[2] file and copy it to /tmp before
installing the sun-java5-doc package.
