    Which flavour of Linux do you have? Many have package managers where you can select Java form there to have it downloaded and installed automatically.

    Or you can try here: Download Java software for Linux from Sun Microsystems

    Does a name like Ubuntu, Red Had, Fedora, Debian mean anything? What does your opening screen say?

    512 MB is the amount of RAM.

    From here:

    How do I tell what version of Linux is running? - LinuxQuestions.org

    Try "cat etc/issue" without the quotes from the command line.
