Did you try to instal Java? If so, this is a duplicate of bug 84896

That bug was verified fixed this morning (Oct 2) So if you try the latest
nightly build, I think the bug will be gone.

Adrian, what build are you using?  Is this still a problem with recent builds?

marking dup for technical K.O. of reporter. If you're still alive and with this
problem in recent builds, please tell us :)
I'll resolve it as dup of 84896, although it may be not the correct one.
