I am following this guide

But I can’t get java working, I downloaded everything but I get the messesge “java checker library could not be found, please check your installation” normal prism launcher has no problem with the java I downloaded. I googled it and someone said they fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling prism, but I can’t even figure out how to uninstall prism. All of this is so confusing. I’ve been trying for a couple days now and nothing’s worked. Please help.

Edit: okay I finally figured it out, you have to move the unzipped prism launcher folder to desktop, then execute the prism launcher

    I don’t have a steamdeck to try this onto, but check this out, it seems very straightforward:

    open a terminal, and then paste this:

    git clone https://github.com/BlackCorsair/install-jdk-on-steam-deck.git
bash ./install-jdk-on-steam-deck/scripts/install-jdk.sh

    this will download from github the repository containing the install-jdk.sh script, and then execute it.

    close the terminal and open it back in order to source all needed files, and check the correct installation by running

    java -version

    if everything goes flawless, you should have java installed in ~/.local/jdk/
