Maybe it would be good if you install java. It just might work then. If you 
don't, you can't expect it too work.

Since you don't care, yadda, yadda, yadda, etc, I'll tell you anyway: if you 
don't install something that's needed to make something else work and you 
don't get the results you want, it won't work. No ifs, ands, or buts about 
it, it just won't work. And that's a fact, Jack.
