Because once again Canonical is obsessed with OpenJDK/IcedTea which NEVER EVER WORKS FOR ANYTHING I NEED, I had to fight to figure out how to get real Sun 6 JDK back.
To fix:
1) Enable partner sources. My /etc/apt/sources.list only had partner sources for source code enabled. Edit your sources.list and change deb-src to deb for the line containing 'lucid partner'.
2) apt-get update; apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
3) update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun
And because that's not fun enough, the java6 plugin for firefox will FAIL to install. To fix this you need to:
cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
rm libjavaplugin.so
ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so libjavaplugin.so
After this, you should be able to use the proper sun Java6 VM.
