Hi I've been trying for 1 day to get Oracle Java running on Ubuntu.

I have a powermac g5 with Ubuntu 12.04 ppc64.

uname -a :

Linux LK37 3.2.0-53-powerpc64-smp #81-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 22 21:17:14 UTC 2013 ppc64 ppc64 ppc64 GNU/Linux

I tried various ways to install Oracle Java but I always end up with:

bash: /usr/bin/java: cannot execute binary file

At the moment I have Installed jdk-7u25-linux-x64.tar.gz in /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0/bin/ as said in this post

I already tried the web install but I get a 404 error. I hope you can help me. I started using Ubuntu yesterday so please give me the complete terminal code, it will be a lot easier for me. For those who care I want to play Minecraft and with the OpenJDK I got a java.lang error. That's why I want to install Oracle Java.
