@username009, it's not hard to download & install the latest java release. Download jre-7u21-linux-i586.tar.gz, extract it to /usr, then, in a console, do:
Then right-click your minecraft.jar file, and Set Run Action to: java -jar "$@" |

Hi there Many thanks for keeping us up to date... One problem - the links in post #1 are to .sfs.zip files which do not seem to contain anything when unzipped.... Thanks peebee _________________  LxPup = Puppy + LXDE

http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=77821&start=36 I see this other thread that has a shell script for updating Java JRE to latest version. Here are my manual instructions to document how I performed those steps. I welcome corrections and updates. Use the Shell Script file from the other thread. It installs to directory /opt/java/jre7xxx. I installed to /usr/java. Frugal Installs might want to install to /mnt/home/java directory. Your mileage may vary. http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_uninstall.xml?printFriendly=true http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_uninstall.xml I uninstalled old versions of JAVA from /usr/java
On my full hard disk Puppy LuPu 5.2.8 install, i placed Java at /usr/java http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_install.xml?printFriendly=true http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_install.xml http://www.java.com/en/download/help/download_options.xml http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7-downloads-1880261.html Download the Linux x86 46.04 MB version jre-7u25-linux-i586.tar.gz
Musher0 has created a shell script file to download, Install, and setup PATHS for Java. The shell script is in a zip file to download. Makes the process easy for you. Recommended by GCMartin, too. Java JRE is up to 1.7U25 as of June 24, 2013. file jre-7u25-linux-i586.tar.gz Kudos to Musher0 for his scripting skills to make Java easy to install for ther rest of us Puppy Users. Below Collected from Musher0 posts http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=77821&start=17 every java user should have a profile.local file in /etc with this at the end of it:
(Please modify my "/mnt/home/java/jre1.7.0_03" with the proper location where your java is. "/opt/java/jre<version number>" is the most likely place your java would be installed.) Check contents of your file /etc/profile.d/java file:////etc/profile.d/java
Thank you Musher0 for your Hard work. GCMartin for pushing this issue to a successful conclusion with Musher0 contributing the Shell Script. I needed to update Java tonight. After manual updating, there was not added PATH directory to find Java
Update Mozilla/Firefox with the Java Plugin. Make a symbolic LInk from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins to the location of java plugin libnpjp2.so
Remove any link to file libjavaplugin_oji.so
ln -s /usr/java/jre1.7.0_25/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so create file in /usr/sbin/enable_java_path.sh
chmod +x /usr/sbin/enable_java_path.sh /usr/sbin/enable_java_path.sh Open Firefox Browser. Enter about:plugins to see if you have the latest Java Plugin installed to your browser Test your installed Java Version here. http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=77821&start=36 Please use this other thread that has a shell script for updating Java JRE to latest version. The above are my notes and documentation working to figuring out a problem with my Java7 installation. Removal of a symbolic link to the file libjavaplugin_oji.so fixed that problem. adding the Java JRE bin directory to my PATH enabled my java to type java -version in a terminal command window. This Tommy Stanton Blog post URL helped me with my problem. http://tommystanton.com/entry/20111030-Getting-Java-to-work-again-in-Iceweasel I welcome your input to update this article. Comment below or send me a private message. Last edited by WB7ODYFred on Tue 02 Jul 2013, 22:42; edited 4 times in total |

A simple build script can do the entire operation. I included one in the programming area for Java. With build scripts, you simply edit in the desired version number and that's it. That's the point of having one. |

I have experienced no need to set java path if you follow my way: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=86906 Libreoffice finds java. The browser plugin works. |

Thank you TheAsterisk! for making these packages available! You are the only person providing a PET package as well as a SFS and I really appreciate that. I needed Java JRE7+ for Minecraft and JRE6 a slightly dated (4.6.X) LibreOffice (I have a Win/Linux/Mac install disk I made a year or two ago). Once again thanks, and thanks for keeping a (pretty) recent release of JRE available. PS: I made this account just to thank you and ask a question on the NVIDIA drivers thread (Minecraft currently crashes Xorg). I may also be interested in releasing some hard to find packages for others, so I may end up posting quite often here. -TheNH813 |
