I had the same problem on Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop i386 (Gutsy Gibbon) --
"airport-config" from the command prompt, for example, would just quit
without any messages and without displaying its window when I had Sun
Java 6 Update 3 (version 1.6.0_03) as the default on my system.
I installed the Sun Java 5 package (version 1.5.0_13) and made it my
default Java with:
$ sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk
$ sudo update-alternatives --config java
and now it works. I enter the "airport-config" command and get the
"Airport Base Station Configurator" Java application window.
I now have the following, which works for airport-utils:
Linux t42 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686
GNU/Linux
airport-utils_1-6_all.deb
airport-utils version 1-6
sun-java5-jdk_1.5.0-13-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
sun-java5-jdk version 1.5.0-13-0ubuntu1
