Here is what I get with java -showversion on my new lindows box:
java version "1.3.1_02"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_02-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_02-b02, mixed mode)

The newest version of java available with synaptic that I find is version
jkd 1.1.

Is there a place I can get a newer/better version of java with synaptic?
