The current Linux I am using does not have openJDK 7, it only has JDK
6.

I have been trying to find a linux distro which has openJDK 7.

according to this link

http://openjdk.java.net/install/

It only mentions debian and Ubuntu, then it says etc...

But on my linux, when I type the command shown above, I get an error
that such package does not exist.

I am using a fairly new linux which is

Linux 2.6.38-10-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP (distro is XUbutu)

Now, when I type

$sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package openjdk-7-jdk

So, before I go start downloading different linux distro and try them
all, I would like to ask if somene know of a linux distro which will
have openjdk-7 on it now.

Thanks,
Steve
