2. Try gedit or vi if you're a command line fan
3. You need to enable multiverse (see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu) and then install the sun-java5-jdk package.

1. `sudo name' will run the name program as root, which doesn't exist.
2. Try installing vim-gnome, or use gedit.
3. What Dean said.

For C++ editors, gedit, vim should be fine. You could also try anjuta which is a full fledged GNOME C/C++ IDE

For C++ editors, in case you are using KDE, you could try the best: kdevelop.

Can you help with this problem?
