Linux Debian/Ubuntu/Kubuntu installation notes

Small notes to Debian / Ubuntu / Kubuntu users having problems installing Jajuk:

Contents

[edit]

Install mplayer and Java

We need java 1.6 and above. Not sure if you already have Java ? Check this link. 

$ sudo apt-get install mplayer sun-java6-jre
[edit]

Configure the default Java

We need to configure it at the default java (selection 6, /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java, in the example below) 

$ sudo update-alternatives --config java   

There are 6 alternatives which provide `java'.

  Selection    Alternative
-----------------------------------------------
          1    /etc/alternatives/kaffe-system/bin/java
          2    /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.0
          3    /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java
          4    /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1
 +        5    /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java
*         6    /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java 

Press enter to keep the default[*], or type selection number: 6
Using `/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java' to provide `java'.

Using apt-get or synaptic or adept_manager

Jajuk is now part of Debian. you can install it using your favorite package manager. You can check version availability on http://packages.debian.org/jajuk

[edit]

Using .deb 

$ sudo dpkg -i jajuk_1.5-2_i386.deb
[edit]

Using .jar 

$ sudo java -jar jajuk-java-installer-1.5.jar

In the Setup Shortcuts, choose "Create Additional shortcuts on the desktop", the shortcuts in the K-Menu doesn't seem to be working all the time.

[edit]

Using .rpm converted to .deb with alien

Dowload the .rpm version of Jajuk, and convert it to a debian package using alien. To install alien: 

$ sudo apt-get install alien

Convert rpm to deb: 

$ sudo alien -d jajuk-1.5.noarch.rpm

Install deb: 

$ sudo dpkg -i jajuk_1.5-2_i386.deb
[edit]

Start Jajuk

If you path, if set correctly, just type from the command line: 

$ jajuk

If you want to start Jajuk using the full path, use: 

$ sh /usr/local/jajuk/jajuk.sh

or 

$ sh /usr/bin/jajuk
