I don't see this as a Linux problem. Sun's JDK works just fine on Linux.
I think you should be shooting Libranet and not Linux! If it doesn't
work it is probably because Libranet did not test properly.

The last time I used Blackdown was some 4 years ago, so I do not think
the problem is there. I stopped using it because JBuilder (which I was
using at the time, shipped with Sun's JDK). I switched to Eclipse over a
year ago and never looked back.
