I am not sure the Web site or the background activity is relevant. The
subject line makes the newsgroups disorganised and prevents you from getting
help from the most appropriate people.

If you meant to say "No-one else had the problem" this means the very
opposite. It is unlikely that Linux is the cause. Your test set is of size
1. Either Java for Linux is perfect is is an utter failure if that is what
you base your hypothesis on.
