Bug Description

Tried to install sun-java6 but the final part requiring me to click on an OK button to accept the license failed. The menu looked almost like a dos menu. Neither the mouse nor the enter key would work. I ended up with a broken package that I am still trying to resolve. Ubuntu 9.04.

Pressed TAB key <OK> turned red, then clicked Enter; to the next popup clicked Yes. It installed.
