You may want to try changing your java version from openJDK to Sun Java (or the other way around depending on what you’re using atm). Vuze seems awfully picky with it’s java runtime environment.
Yes I installed vuze from packman repo. And I use Sun Java. I used to be able to run this fine till i upgraded to suse 11.1 Now Vuze doesn’t work. Nor does my totem Video player. The video player always gives an error saying codec missing, where as the other players like Kaffane and MOlayer r playing the videos just fine.
