I get this as well. I can run netbeans OK when using my laptops built in
intel card, but when switching to the (also built in!) nvidia card with
the proprietary drivers I get the described crash consistently.

@Craig: are you using the proprietary nvidia drivers as well when you
get the crash? In that case it can either be some ABI mismatch with
nvidia's libGL.so or simply a bugin the nvidia drivers.

Title:
  NetBeans 7 crashes OpenJDK with SIGSEGV in glXChooseVisual when GLX
  not available on display

Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Launching NetBeans7 RC1 from http://netbeans.org/ fails with a SIGSEGV
  on a freshly installed Ubuntu 11.04 system with OpenJDK 1.6.0_22. The
  segfault is in libGL.so.1 at glXChooseVisual+0x106eb .

  Running "glxinfo" reports:

  Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
  Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig

  ... so I suspect the issue is that OpenJDK isn't coping cleanly when
  GLX isn't available.

  It appears that the JDK has been restructured to try to merge the
  -headless and regular jdks, given that `dpkg -S
  /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin/java' reports `openjdk-6-jre-
  headless'. Attempting to 'apt-get --purge remove openjdk-6-jre-
  headless' shows that openjdk-6-jre now depends on openjdk-6-jre-
  headless. This may be related to the problem.
