which java tells me that my java is installed in /usr/bin/java while I
installed my 1.4.1 JRE in /opt/java.sun.
And java -version tells me that my version of java is 1.1.8 . Apparently, I
have two versions of java installed on this machine. How can I explicitly
point bash to use the 1.4.1 one instead of the 1.1.8 one?

well, I was talking about the book, not the video. And as it is impossible to
find the english version of the book in my country, I have no other choice,
but to download the PDF version of the book. I won't ever dare download a
vide with my dialup.

I get "Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
limewire: Depends: j2re1.3 but it is not installable". Tried it on both,
Sarge and sid repositories.
