Public bug reported:

default java at command line is still java6.  invoke java from command line, 
and minecraft fails to start, usually with no 
message, but there is some variety.  Most usual:

charles@basquette:~/Desktop$ java -jar ./minecraft.jar

Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",

Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",

Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",

Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",

** WARNING **: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to 
socket /tmp/dbus-oSohfHsLYR: Connection refused
charles@basquette:~/Desktop$

another case:

charles@basquette:~/Desktop$ java -jar ./minecraft.jar

Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",

Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",

Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",

java: ../../src/xcb_io.c:273: poll_for_event: Assertion 
`!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost' failed.

charles@basquette:~/Desktop$ 

another version, as suggested by:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11696963

is to invoke as root, yielding:

root@basquette:/home/charles/Desktop# java -jar ./minecraft.jar

Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",

Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",
