You have a bad install - or system issues - or both. You are likely to

I have a valid sun jre already installed (/user/local/jre1.6.0_07) and
it works
fine for my OOo_2.2.0, which, as i said, is also still very much alive.
Wouldn't it be possible to simply set a link to this jre in
/opt/openoffice.org3/program,
or somehow making the newly installed ooo3.0 aware of the existing sun jre ?
I recommend that you uninstall OOo 3.0 from Synaptic - search for 'ooo'
and mark all 3.0.0-9 files for _complete removal_, then apply. Hint: if
you click the 'S' ('S' Blank Package) column, Synaptic will sort the
packages by installed vs not installed - making it easier to see which
are installed.
In synaptic, I now see thirtyfive installed ooo v. 3.0.0-9 packages. I
could remove them, of course ...
Then delete the /opt/openoffice.org, /opt/openoffice.org3 and
~/.openoffice.org/3/user folders.
... and delete these as well, ...
Then from a terminal:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall openoffice.org openoffice.org-java-common
sudo apt-get install --reinstall sun-java6-jre
Those hopefully will fix your exisiting (U)OOo & java JRE.
... but won't these 'install' commands destroy my current 2.2.0 version
and its jre1.6.0_07...
which right now are in perfect good shape?
If I must sacrifice my 2.2.0 just to try out 3.0.0, I'd rather demur.
Grateful for your help, however.

Then reinstall OOo 3.0. Note the install output from the 'sudo -i dpkg
*.deb' command. If you get _any_ errors please post. Afterwards, don't
set up any links/menu items to OOo 3.0 just yet, first try:
/opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice
to initialize. Set your java (Tools|Options|OpenOffice.org|Java), close
OOo and reopen. That should work & if so then go ahead and try from the
menu that you created (be sure to include the full link in your menu item).
