Java-based application is very popular nowadays, it's because Java-based applications can run on any operating system e.g. Windows, Linux, and Mac with JRE (Java Runtime Environment) installed. Recently, I wrote some Java-based applications in Ubuntu Buzz! Most of those applications work well with OpenJDK/JRE. But, if you want to use Oracle Java instead of the "open" solution, you can do it easily. For your information, Oracle Java is no longer available on Ubuntu repositories because some changes in Java license. Fortunately, there is a script which can automatically download and install the latest Oracle Java on Ubuntu.

There are two methods we can use, upgrading via Internet or upgrading via alternate Ubuntu CD (without Internet connection).

1. Upgrading with Internet connection
Ubuntu users who have high speed Internet access can upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin easily by typing the following command on Linux Terminal:

  • update-manager -d
The Update Manager window will appear and inform that New Ubuntu release '12.04 LTS' is available. All you need to do is just click the "Upgrade" button.

After you are done with the installation, there would likely be a huge list of things you need to do to make your system up and running. Here is a list of the most important things  that you need to do after a successful installation.
