I changed it to 1.5 (the setting was wrong).

The new VTK version does basically not require 1.6. But due to a bug in Java 
1.5 your VM will most likely crash if you try with this version (If you know 
how to do you can make it work there too - in my case it crashes (segfault) 
if I try to open a local rendering after starting g-Eclipse, if I do a remote 
rendering before which initialises Java2D and some internal stuff in the 
native part in AWT then the local rendering works). This behaviour might be 
different on different patch-levels of the Java VM or different platforms. 
Basically its very likely a bug in the AWT native stuff.
