In Netbeans 6.8 cant find org.netbeans package

Question

I have netbeans 6.8 with java ME platform setup on my ubuntu 9.10.
My code requires the package org.netbeans.microedition.lcdui which is either not installed or not in the path. Surprising this runs perfectly in netbeans 6.8 on windows on my friend's pc.
Is there any java ME plugin I need to install?
Can somebody help me out with this?
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like netbeans_midp_components_basic.jar is missing from your NB install for some reason.

Try get netbeans_midp_components_basic.jar off your friend's PC (under [NetBeansRoot]/mobility8/modules/ext) and put it in your own install in the same path. Or add it to your project's build path.

If the file netbeans_midp_components_basic.jar is missing, some others might be missing too which will cause problems down the line. So a better way I'd suggest a reinstall, double checking that you get the NB6.8 that's bundled with the mobility pack.
