    Unfortch, apt-get on the Pi says that there is no candidate to
install Java-6. 'It may have been removed.'  All we need is someone to
find the Raspbian deb file for java-6. You can install from a local
file, but, I don't remember the incantation off hand. If anyone
installed it with 'apt-get' the deb file may still be in
/var/cache/apt/archive/.
