$sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre
now you should get the JRE installed in the directory /usr/lib/jvm
if you hit $ java -version now you should see something like this
java version “1.5.0_13″
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_13-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.5.0_13-b05, mixed mode)
