unexplained vm crash on sarge

[Wade Curry <wade-ml-debian-java@syntaxman.org>]

Hello,

I've just started picking up java, and decided to install it on a
UML instance.  I have used the java-package, blackdown .debs, and
straight sun .bin package methods.  No matter which one I use,
starting java or javac I get a crash.

I've used the standard edition 1.4 and 1.5 sdk packages, no
netbeans or anything fancy.  My sarge is up to date.  The error
message says that the error occurred in a module outside the vm,
and so it couldn't be detected (I'll paste the message below).

I found nothing on Google that really fit what I was seeing.  This
UML is running on a remote server (no X at all) and is using a
2.6.12 kernel.  I would assume that I have a conflicting package
installed, but the depends in the blackdown package didn't cause
apt to complain at all.

I installed the sun jdk1.5 package on Ubuntu hoary just fine.  Which
doesn't mean much, except that I can console myself that it wasn't
just me not following instructions. :-)

If there is more information needed to diagnose this, please ask.
I am happy to read documentation, if I know what I'm looking for.
I'm just rather stumped about now.

Thanks!

Wade Curry
