64-bit Installer gives error: "Graphical installers are not supported by the VM"

Hello All,
I am using RHEL 6.1 OS. (i.e. "Linux 2.6.32-131.0.15.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 10 15:42:40 EDT 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux").

Our installer (IA 2010 SP1) is built with 64-bit JRE on RHEL 6.1 64-bit OS.
We are using Sun JDK, 1.6.0_26-b03

I am getting the infamous GUI problem while launching the installer UI - i.e. I can "not" launch the GUI version of the installer and facing the error: "Graphical installers are not supported by the VM. The console mode will be used instead..."

Here is the output - "any" help will be much appreciated.
