I have Unbuntu 12.04 installed as well as Java Version 7 Update 6 but Minecraft will not run.
I have downloaded the latest version of the minecraft.jar from Minecraft.net.
I have tried to right click and making it executable then opening it with Java 7 runtime.
I have also tried using the terminal and giving it executable permissions and running it using the java -jar command but this is the error that is returned.

I have also tried installing openjdk 6 and 7 through the software center and had no luck any suggestions on getting it to run?

Make sure your video card drivers are up to date.
