java 1.6 installation on linux

i've had a hard time to install JAVA on my SUSE linux computer.

I had a JAVA-1.4.2. I want to install jAVA 1.6. So I download java 1.6 from sun's website. and do the installation following the instrruction. however, after installation, when i try to verify the installation, it still shows me that i am using the older version (1.4.2).

when i checked my system, the java-1.6 is there, but saying that it is not installed. i have discussed the problem with other linux users with no clue. did anyone here have any suggestion?

maybe discuss it with Linux users who do have a clue?

What about for example setting up your system environment correctly?

Uninstall GNU Java, which is 1.4.2, from your system. You should tweak /etc/alternatives entries for java. See:

man alternatives
