Thanks, I'll update Debian/Natty (there is a minor packaging bug in the package you guys have which I'll fix before uploading to the official repos). I'll also try to get version 0021 backported.

For those that see this bug report, there are several workarounds:
1) don't use sun-java but default-jre instead. This bug is actually a known bug in sun-java. (bug #325506)
2) add export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/jni to your .bashrc, the .deskop file (in /usr/share/desktop), or on the command line before starting arduino
3) add the new package (instructions are above).
