[Gvsig_english] errors when running gvSIG on Linux

Hi!

Intersting. Java 1.4.2 isn't even anymore in the repositories.
Yes, my Java version is
java version "1.5.0_11"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_11-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_11-b03, mixed mode, sharing)

I used the option:
"Install ready to use in home directory"

Now it works.

Is this the prefered method or should all this Java options be installed 
system.

I'd like to have this directory to be selfcontained in order to be able 
to move it to /opt/
For instance, when I rename the gvSIG_1.0.2/ to gvSIG_1.0.2x/ I get the 
folloing error msg in the console:
  ./gvSIG.sh
cd: 4: can't cd to /home/timmie/gvSIG_1.0.2/bin

Well, the program runs nevertheless.

Thanks for your help!
