I've followed the instructions for installing the sun java sdk, but something's wrong.  I've checked canonical partners in Other Software

See my reply at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8382641/installing-idea-on-ubuntu-11-10/8384111#8384111.

For WebStorm/PhpStorm the only difference would be:

export WEBIDE_JDK=/path/to/jdk1.6.0_29
