You're speaking of Sun's JRE vs. gcj? I think by default (K)Ubuntu uses gcj,
or /etc/alternatives/java. If you want to force it to use Sun's java, link
java to /usr/lib/jvm/<pick your favorite version of java here>/jre/java.

sudo ln -s `which java` /usr/lib/jvm/sun-jre-1.6/jre/java

I may have the path names wrong though, I'm at work so I can't check.
