To install:

sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk

and

sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk

Somehow this leaves OpenJDK 6 as default (which is fine).

IntelliJ IDEA doesn't work with OpenJDK 6 on Linux.

Do the following

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/
cd ~/Applications/ideaIC-13/idea-IC-133.696/
./bin/idea.sh

This overrides JAVA_HOME only for this shell task.
