Java RTE problems

I can't install Java RTE 6 on Linux. Neither can my dad. I'm running Ubuntu, he's running Fedora. I have tried both of the 32 bit versions of the install, but I can't get it running. What could I be doing wrong?

Do not tell me "get Windows" or anything like that.

Again they put their documentation on a secure connection for some reason.

If all else fails, you may have to compile from source.

Neither of those worked. I even tried Opera and got less results than Firefox.

How do you compile?

If you don't know how to do this you honestly shouldn't be running Linux.
