how to install sun-java6-jre on ubuntu 9.1

Asked by Brad Appel

I am trying to install eclipse in my computer in Ubuntu environment. I got the steps to follow in your website that I have install JDK. I went through sudo apt-get install-sun-java6-jdk.
It asked me one question to hit the yes/no. I hit yes. At the end it gave me a window that is license agreement. At the end of the page there is ok button but it doesn't respond anything if I click on it. If I try to close the terminal it says "There is process running in this terminal. If you close it, the process will be killed."
I got stuck.
How can I get rid of this problem

try:

PS1="[\d \t \u@\h:\w ] $ "

If this works run:

gedit ~/.bashrc

and add the line at the bottom of the file (press enter after it lso).

You can set the prompt to be enything you like (or nothing):

Nah, didn't work. Terminal is completely unresponsive to anything I type in. It basically acts like notepad.

It brings up xterm but the same problem persists.

Any other ideas? Do I need to try completely reinstalling Ubuntu?

you could create a new user and copy its ~/.bashrc to your current user and chown it to your ncurrent user too (important)

Can you help with this problem?
