I'm really bad at this, and this is my first experience using Ubuntu. If you don't think your answer needs to be explained, it needs to be explained as if I were three. I'm talking explicit, clear, verbatim instructions. Thank you for any and all help, especially since I'm so stupid.

I have followed this post and downloaded Ubuntu on my HP Chromebook.
I have followed this link and downloaded the Runescape client on my device.
When I check what version of java I'm running, I get this: 

java version "1.6.0_34"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.13.6) (6b34-1.13.6-1ubuntu0.12.04.1)
OpenJDK Zero VM (build 23.25-b01, mixed mode)

Why is my client not running and what can I do to make it run?

You should download the latest JDK. Do do so:

1) sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java

2) sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer

This ppa has JDK 6/7/8/9 but 8 is the most stable as of now.

Important!!! For now, you should continue to use Java 8 because Oracle Java 9 is available as an early access release (it should be released in 2016)!
