Install Sun Java 6 SDK on Xubuntu 11.10

Since 11.10 (X)Ubuntu does not provide the sun-java-jdk package, to install it open a terminal window and type:

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-plugin
