1. Install prerequisites
jdownloader is a great tool to download file from share websites like rapidshare.com and many more. Here are simple steps on how to install jdownloader on Ubuntu or Debian Linux distributions: First install all prerequisites:
apt-get install openjdk-6-jre sun-java6-jre default-jre \
zenity default-jre-headles sun-java6-bin \
openjdk-6-jre-headless
for jdownloader to work correctly you must have java installed otherwise you get a following error message:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:

2. Install Linux jdownloader
Next download jdownloader package from https://launchpad.net/~jd-team/+archive/jdownloader and install jdownloader all.deb package:

Wait for an update and you are done !

I am having Ubuntu 10 and tried to do as you said. When I type
'apt-get install openjdk-6-jre sun-java6-jre default-jre zenity default-jre-headles sun-java6-bin openjdk-6-jre-headless'
I Ubuntu gives following message
"Package sun-java6-jre is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source"
Do you have any solution ?
Thank you.
