I have not found the usual desktop icon to get pets?
Nothing in the Menus that I have seen either
Anyone know how I get one ?
I want to look at the Java one

Say Ty, what is it.. are ya look'n for Quickpet, or the latest Java update.. that you'd need for what?

If it's an sfs you're after, that's one thing. The Java pkg itself is, reasonably straightforward..

Semme ,I seemed to remember bringing down java 1.6 as a pet in 5.3.1. Could be mistaken but then I could not find anywhere to get pets in the menu of 5.4.2 when I went looking..
I needed it to put in another post on installing Arduino.-I have 1.6 and 1.7 but I was telling others where to get the JRE

Thanks 666philb I got that down for future use anyway, java is under internet . How come its not in the distro this time and needs to be added ?

Cause not everyone has use for it. Not to mention- it's over a hundred mb's installed.
