[Techtalk] Java J2sdk 1 3 1 upgrade from jdk 1 1 8

I am installing Limweire and it requires Java Runtime j2sdk1.3.1. On 
SuSE installation it comes with JDK 1.1.8 for Star Office.

I have a very limited knowledge of this JRE stuff and fear stuffing up 
badly.

Do I rm jdk 1.1.8 and then chmod+ j2sdk1.3.1 then
./j2sdk1.3.1 and bingo?

Then once I have j2sdk unpacked I gather I have to set a path in some 
profile somewhere. I did this in RH 7.2 once before in the bash_profile 
but SuSE has no such file.

Help greatly appreciated.
