Error running Blackdown j2sdk-1.3.1-02a-FCS-linux-i386 'java -version'

Title: Email_Tail

With Blackdown j2sdk-1.3.1-02a-FCS-linux-i386, I get the following when I run 'java -version'

java version "1.3.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build Blackdown-1.3.1-02a-FCS)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build Blackdown-1.3.1_02a-FCS, mixed mode)

I get a similar problem with j2sdk-1.3.1

I'm running a fairly vanilla SuSE 7.3 installation (kernel 2.4.10).  (The only slightly non-standard part of myt system is
the processor, an AMD Athlon 800 mhz; I've been running Java on this processor for a couple years and I
can't believe that this is the problem).  

The Sun and IBM version of 1.3.1 run without problems, as does Blackdown 1.3.0

Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas as to what's causing it?

Thanks
