Default java 1.4.2 vs 1.5

Hi all, I am runninng LimeWire under Fedora Core 4. Java 1.5 is installed:

Code:
$ rpm -q jre
jre-1.5.0_04-fcs
but java 1.4.2 is also installed (probably by FC2) and seems to take precedence in the path, even though I have tried to configure this otherwise with sbin/alternatives. As such, when I run LimeWire from the Gnome menu, it launches with 1.4.2 and crashes frequently, whereas if I run

Code:
$ /usr/java/jre1.5.0_04/bin/java -jar LimeWire.jar &
it runs with 1.5 without problems. Anyone know how to fix things so it always runs with 1.5?
