FAQ

Where can I find a server to connect to?

You can set up your own server by downloading the server. Although its very simple to setup you will need a computer running Linux. If you don't feel comfortable with this or are feeling lazy(!) you can join a public server.

Why do I need to install Java and where can I get it from?

Java allows software to be written on one computer and then run on many others. Minneola Client is written in Java so that you can enjoy it on as many computers as possible.

You can check if you have Java installed on your computer by visiting http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp. If you find its not installed you can download it from http://www.java.com/en/download/.

Help, I've forgotten my password. How can I get access to my account?

Get in contact with one of the server administrators for your Minneola server and ask them to reset if for you.

How did this project start?

This project was initially started as a second year university group project at Bristol University by 4 computer scientists.

Why are you crazy about Minneolas and fruit in general?

Every piece of software has a mascot or a theme. Sun has coffee and we have fruit! We aren't crazy, we just think its tasty, honest!
