See https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=414462
which says the app was trying to allocate too much memory
for your system.

To verify whether it's the same problem, could you reinstall the problem
package and try
$ java -version
to see if it fails, and
$ java -Xmx384m -version
to see if it succeeds?

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-6/+bug/341397
is a possible dup.
