Updates for 64-bit Linux support #18

Closed mbolivar closed 12 years ago

mbolivar commented 12 years ago

These changes add 64-bit Linux support. The two changes that may be controversial are:

  1. Stop bundling the Oracle JRE on Linux, relying on the system to have one installed.
  2. Update the rxtx serial library to version 2.2pre2.

The first change was made simply for convenience, as bundling a JRE on Linux is a hassle that doesn't really seem necessary. The second change is necessary because the current version of rxtx (2.1-7) crashes on 64-bit Linux. See the commit messages for more details.
