First you have to download JRE @ http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

cd /home/username/Downloads
chmod +x jre-6u24-linux-x64.bin
sudo ./jre-6u24-linux-x64.bin

Note: jre-6u24-linux-x64.bin is the name of downloaded installer.

Rename generated folder (ex: jre1.6.0_24) to sun-java6-jre

sudo mv sun-java6-jre /usr/share/java/

Note: if you cannot rename folder use the command:

sudo chown -R username:username /usr/share/java/

where username is Ubuntu logged user.

If minimize, maximize and close window buttons are missing and your interface is Gnome just type in terminal:

metacity --replace

And your buttons came back!
