Can't install Squirrel 2.6.5 on Kubuntu 8.04

Hi,
When I try to run the install.jar file for this a blank LzPack window opens up
with the heading "Installation of Squirrel SQL Cleint"   and then it just
stays there till I kill it.

Has anyone seen anything like this before?

When you run the following command, what do you see?

java -version

Do you run the installer like

java -jar <installer>.jar ?

We've seen issues like this before for some JVMs when used on Linux with Compiz / Beryl Desktop Effects.  You can try disabling them and re-launching the installer to see if that is it.

Yup, that's just how I ran it.
I have had success with it before with Winxp.  (Blah)  and Kubuntu 7.04 aka
Freespire 2.0 and it fires off with no problems.  
But when I hit Kubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 it's blow up city.  
Sad too, because it's a great db tool.

Open for suggestions.  :)

I did find compiz window manager and uninstalled it.

Something different happened this time.  

If I run the installer as a normal user I get:
Qfile: writeblocked: file not open
Also the Lzpack window comes up like it's ready to install but it just hangs.

If I run the install as root I get:
Invalid Mit-Magic-Cookie-! Key (.:426): Gtk WARNING **: Cannot Open Display :
0.0


Hope this yeilds some clues.
