It should work with either Sun Java 6 JDK or Java 5 JDK. But do be sure that you use Sun's Java and not Open Java or Gnu Java.
Also, when I upgraded my Fedora system from Open Java to Sun Java, I found links in /etc/alternatives that were still pointing to the old versions. So you may want to double check that /usr/bin/java points to /etc/alternatives/java points to the directory where you installed Sun Java JDK. Same for jdb javac and jar.
