I poked around quite a bit looking for a Java5 JRE that runs on PA-RISC Linux, but I have not found one. Has anybody had luck with this. We inherited 5 HP B2000s and we are a Java shop, so running Java is a key to them being useful.

Hmmm, you want Sun's Java5 for HP! Not too likely. See
<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/system-configurations.html>.
As far I can tell, only Sparc, x86 and Itanium processors are supported and even for these the matrix is incomplete.

There might be hope in the future given Sun's decision to open source Java.

For PA-RISC linux, there's the support within GCC. There may be one or two other implementations but I don't know any details about these.
