Take a look at my <a href=
"http://www.jbidwatcher.com/help/quick_start">Quick Start guide</a>
for some ideas on how to get a Java Runtime for your system that
will be able to run JBidwatcher.</p>
<p>If that didn't link correctly, you can go to <a href=
"http://www.jbidwatcher.com">http://www.jbidwatcher.com</a> and
look for the Help menu item, and the 'Quick Start' submenu.</p>
<p>It's a little bit more difficult on Linux than other systems,
for historical reasons. Linux is less consistent about downloaded
software than Mac OS X or Windows, unfortunately, so certain things
are not as clear, and I've also typically provided a little less
handholding and automatic installation for Linux users, because
they typically haven't needed it. As Linux becomes more popular a
general-purpose desktop, that'll have to change of course.</p>
<p>There's also a forum post linked from the quick start guide
which has some discussion of getting it running on Ubuntu. All
told, though, you should be able to download a modern Java Runtime
and get it working.</p>
<p>Best of luck with your auctions!</p>
