1st) Please refrain from language that could offend people.
2nd) You are overthinking the problem. All you need is Sun-JDK-1.5 or newer. You
do not want any webservices running on the box.
3rd) Learning ofBiz is HARD. Learning it and Linux at the same time should be
considered IMPOSSIBLE. You can learn ofBiz on whatever you may be more
comfortable with... Windows or MacOSX

Welcome to the world of OFBiz...
