I googled around for this and it looks like some issue with
the xcb lib on SUSE.  It seems like later versions of this library
are causing problems for the JVM.

It seems like a harmless issue, and is supposed to be fixed in the
latest version of Java 1.6.  We will be moving to 1.6 in one of the
future releases, but for now we have to stick with 1.5 for the 
installers.
