Well, i would say it is quite easy.The thing is that you have to java (jdk) installed first.

Here it goes :

download jdk (i am using 1.4 )for Gnu/Linux.

1) use cp jdk_your_version.bin /usr/local/src/ .

2) use chmod u+x jdk_your_version.bin to make your file executable.


3) go ./jdk_your_version.bin <- will install jdk.


4) set up your path .That can be done in a number of ways.The easiest would be to edit your .bash_profile file in your home dir or create a new one if it doesn't exist :-) .


add:

JAVA_HOME= /usr/local/src/jdk_your_version/bin/

PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME:


test in your console by going java --version

You are done :-).

Now go to your limewire.bin and execute it .Hopefully you have LimeWire running .
