Ubuntu 12.10 is about to show up in its stable version this week. Users and developers who want to run or develop Java applications and applets on Ubuntu must have a copy of Java 7 (Update 7) installed on their systems. In this tutorial we will show you how to install JRE7 & JDK7 in Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal or older. The tutorial is also applicable for Linux Mint 13 or older.

Open the terminal and run the following commands to install JRE7:
sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://www.duinsoft.nl/pkg debs all' >> /etc/apt/sources.list"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 5CB26B26
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install update-sun-jre
