[aklug] Java Question - Jin

Hi. I'm trying to get Jin (Java chess client) to run. It won't run because
it needs to be using Sun Java instead of the GNU java implementation. I
installed Sun Java 6 jre, but the program doesn't seem to know that.

Here is the script that starts the program:

######

#!/bin/sh

# Java command
JAVA_CMD=java

# Check if GCJ
$JAVA_CMD -version 2>&1 | grep -i -q "gcj\|gnu\|gij"
if [ $? -eq 0 ]
then
         echo "You seem to be running GNU's Java implementation, which is
incomplete."
         echo "Jin requires Sun's Java (or a fully compatible version) 1.4
or later."
         echo "If you can't install it with your distribution's package
manager, you"
         echo "can obtain and install it manually from http://www.java.com"
         exit
fi

# Follow links
filename=`readlink -f $0`
if [ -z "$filename" ]
then
         filename=$0
fi

# Change to Jin's directory - Jin needs to be run from its directory
cd `dirname $filename`

# Run Jin
$JAVA_CMD $JAVA_OPTS -jar jin.jar $*

######

I commented out the part which checks the Java version, but then the
program just starts but crashes immediately. How can I adjust this so that
it uses Sun Java?
