marcello_dl's Journal: Processing.org installation on debian etch x86

first i checked that update alternatives (same as the checks performed with ibm-sdk for ppc installation script in the java journal entry) point to sun-java5-* related stuff.

then i downloaded and untarred processing.tgz

then i "aptitude installed" libstdc++5 and jikes (but the default jikes is supplied with processing.org, check it works with ./jikes -v in its directory)

then started the environment with ./processing
