Type the following line and then you should be able to install LimeWire
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2re1.4.0
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/j2re1.4.0/bin
-------------- snip ----------------
I would add that you need to verify that path, ie
ls -al /usr/java/j2re1.4.0/bin
and
ls -al /usr/java/j2re1.4.0
the newer j2re's path can be slightly different and doing as above on one using the newer versions will result in a no VM error still cause the path isnt correct
ie
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jre-1.3.1_02
NOT
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jre-1.3.1
I hope this helps someone as the previous messages helped me get to this point and yes, now i have limewire running on Mandrake 8.2

Congratulations. Installation fixes coming soon. My prior postings concentrated on slightly experienced *nix users. I am better prepared to make the necessary corrections and additions to incorporate beginners as well.
