The Guide Show How-to Install the Latest Oracle-Sun Java SE JDK 7 64bit Release on Linux Fedora 16 x86_64 Gnome3 Desktop.
Take Note: At the Same Time I'm also Illustrating here the Easiest Way of Installing the New Downloaded .rpm Packages with Dependecies on Fedora 16 Gnome Desktop :)
The Screenshots of Installation Correspond to the Install on a Fedora 16 Gnome3 Desktop but the Procedure on KDE, XFCE, Lxde is Similar...
Following the Easiest and Practicable Way I have Expressly Excluded the Use of Terminal Commands here.
So Take the Time of Carefully Reading and Executing the Instructions Contained Here and All should Work Like a Breeze :)
