Perhaps you have more packages than needed installed (I'm referring to 
the ia32 packages).  I don't know if you need them, but with all the 
suggestions given and the following packages installed, Java works fine 
on this system:

sun-java6-bin
sun-java6-demo
sun-java6-doc
sun-java6-fonts
sun-java6-jdk
sun-java6-jre
sun-java6-source

I develop in Java so I have a few, but I think with *-bin, *-fonts and 
*-jre things should work fine. :-)
