Problem running Minecraft [SOLVED]

Hi there!
I just downloaded both minecraft and minecraft-data from the aur, but i can't play the game after login, I only get a black screen.
Terminal Output:

[roobre@Archiroo ~]$ minecraft
28
Exception in thread "Minecraft main thread" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Can't load library: /home/roobre/.minecraft/bin/natives/liblwjgl.so
    at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1649)

    at net.minecraft.client.Minecraft.run(SourceFile:553)
    at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:636)

I have read that openjdk may causes the problem, because minecraft only works with jre. But I need openjdk to use netbeans and arduino IDE

Any Solution? Thanks in advance

Can't load library: /home/roobre/.minecraft/bin/natives/liblwjgl.so

Does that exist?

Nop.
In fact, ~/.minecraft is empty. I put there some files from a Windows version of minecraft to play offline wothout buying the game.

That's the problem. The Windows client uses dll files for its libraries. Linux uses so. The client downloads them when you log into an account that purchased the game.

Hmmm, Ok. I supose i will need to buy it.

However, the web version of the "Classic" also doesn't work, and it doesn't need any extra files. What's the problem there?

Perhaps that's an issue with OpenJDK.

Unless you know for sure you can play, buying may be a waste of money.

Re: Problem running Minecraft [SOLVED]

Yea, that's the main reason of opening this topic. I know that i can't play with the embedded browser applet, but i'm not sure if I would be able to play whith the desktop version after buying the game.

Can anyone confirm that?

Re: Problem running Minecraft [SOLVED]

Why do you need openjdk? Arch defaults to it, but it's easy to remove and replace with JDK/JRE.

Re: Problem running Minecraft [SOLVED]

I solved it!
@skottish: Because I got an error when

yaourt -S jre

telling me that it was in conflict with openjdk6

But with

yaourt -S jdk

worked fine (replaced openJDK succesfully.

Thank you so much dudes!
