robocode installer freeze


my programming teacher pointed me towards a coding "game" where you code a "robot" in java to attack other robots, this game is written entirely in java and is platform independant

my problem is that when i launch the setup wizard using the command
Code:
#java -jar robocode-setup.jar
it won't take any user input, you can click on a button, but they do nothing, i have to make it force quit to get rid of it!

i'm using ubuntu 8.04 with all current necessary java programs installed

Works fine on sun-java 1.6
The default java in Ubuntu is from 'gcj-base' and not working with several applications.
