Could you please run it under strace and send me the output? LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/geotranz GEOTRANS_DATA=/usr/share/geotranz/data strace -f -o /tmp/geotranz.str /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin/java -jar /usr/share/geotranz/java_gui/geotrans2.jar
It'd be nice also run it under ltrace, but it isn't working for me on i386, ltrace seems not very happy with the threads java is creating. I think the problem is the java virtual machine. Could you please try it with other programs to check if it works ok?
