[Solved] Fix Zotero in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid

tilmaniac
After upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Zotero wasn't working (for me).
This was a Java problem.

The solution is to uninstall the new default Java (IcedTea) and revert back to the Sun Java JRE which can now be found in the partner repository.

Rough instructions can be found here:

Hopefully, this is helpful for someone else.
