I need a jre to run a java app. The "jre" in the ports collection in the 
java directory is broken, I also tried grabbing it manually and it's still 
broken. I tried diablo, and that was a dead end too. Can I run java apps on 
FreeBSD? Any recommendations? I need something quick and easy as this is a 
test, this is only a test. And I've wasted a lot of time on it already.....
