Check out the following link: http://www.linuxnewbie.org/nhf/Programming/Installing_JDK.html Also, if you still have problems (such as setting the classpath, etc.), search on the forums using the Search Button (http://linuxnewbie.org/forum/search.php?s=) to see if someone else asked the same queston. Finally, if you're really into java programming under linux, you might be interested in getting the following book titled "Java Programming on Linux" (http://www.bookpool.com/.x/aii6z8v9f4/sm/1571691669)

You need to go to java.sun.com and download the java development kit. The tutorial below should get you on your way, also you'll get the development kit there.

ViMan is correct as there are lots and lots of previous posts on installing Java.

Forum search for 'install java' and use the resources that are already available to you. :)
