Netbeans 6.7.1 on OpenSuse 11.1

I needed to do these steps to install Netbeans 6.7.1 on OpenSUSE 11.1

Install these packages

java-1_6_0-sun
java-1_6_0-sun-alsa
java-1_6_0-sun-devel
java-1_6_0-sun-jdbc
java-1_6_0-sun-plugin

as root run the 'update-alternatives' command

#update-alternatives --config java

and choose the sun jre and not the default openjdk!!

+ 1 /usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk/bin/java
2 /usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.5.0-gcj/bin/java
* 3 /usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.6.0-sun/bin/java

That's it...download the linux versioin of Netbeans and run it!
