I recently reinstalled my Ubuntu 13.04. I used processing-2.0b9 bevor the reinstall and it worked fine. Now it always crashes on startup with the following exception:

I tried the newest version processing-2.0.2 but it also crashes with the same exception.
I also reinstalled the java OpenJDK with no success.
