Get Started - BSD
Download J2SE Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.4.x or later
Depending on your platform and BSD release, download the corresponding JRE and dependant packages.
For example, we are using FreeBSD 6.1 i386 for installation:
Download javavmwrapper-2.3.tbz and diablo-jre-freebsd5.i386.1.5.0.07.01.tbz in the following links.
http://www.freebsd-fr.org/ports/java.html#javavmwrapper-2.3
http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml
http://www.freebsd.org/ports/java.html#diablo-jre-1.5.0.07.01_3 (See package dependancy of your machine)
Install J2SE Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.4.x or later to /usr/local/diablo-jre1.5.0
Use following command to install package
pkg_add javavmwrapper-2.3.tbz
pkg_add diablo-jre-freebsd5.i386.1.5.0.07.01.tbz
Create a symbolic link for JRE
ln -s /usr/local/diablo-jre1.5.0 /usr/java
If you are using csh as your shell, you need to type "rehash" and hit enter to make the symbolic link take effect. For other shell types it should work.
setenv JAVA_HOME /usr/java
Verify the installed JRE
JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version
See if the output does not contain warning

or DISPLAY=192.168.0.2; export DISPLAY
or DISPLAY=192.168.0.2:0.0; export DISPLAY
BSD (csh): setenv DISPLAY IP_ADDRESS_OF_XTERMINAL[:0.0]
For example
setenv DISPLAY :0.0
or setenv DISPLAY 127.0.0.1
