Can't install OpenOffice.org due to uninstallable depeds

When trying to install OpenOffice 1.1 on SUSE 9.0 via apt-get, I get the message that it 'depends on libjawt.so but it is not installable.' Googling makes this appear to be connected with Java (which I don't have installed, but would be useful in other areas like browsers, so I'd like to install it). I've looked at the JPackage Project, but I'm not sure from their page what to put in my sources.list to get the packages. Hopefully these items are connected, and I appreciate your help. Thanks.
