Get the "Azureus GTK" version as a tarball. Unzip it with

tar xvjf nameoftarball.tar.bz2      (the j is for bzip 2)

cd azureus
./azureus

That should be it.

What he said^

Also make sure /usr/bin/java actually exists; if not, make a symlink.

Yeah, and to find it, look around your Java installation which is probably /usr/java/j2re-(version)/bin or something like that.

I really suggest you put that in your path, run these at the commandline (not as root)

$ PATH=/path/to/whereever/you/installed/java/bin:$PATH >> ~/.profile

and

$ PATH=/path/to/whereever/you/installed/java/bin:$PATH

righty!

Don't use Java programs. They are IMMENSELY inefficent.
