The gnu java implementation is (I believe -- I could be horridly out of date on this) still not complete, especially with respect to AWT. My recommendation would be to install either openjdk-6 (which Nick I believe is using and works) or sun-java6 (which I am using and works). > For the records: >=20 > --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- > > which java > /usr/bin/java >=20 > > ls -lia /usr/bin/java > 94778 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Aug 6 15:28 /usr/bin/java -> /etc/altern= atives/java* > --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Best is to do: update-alternatives --display java which will list the alternatives installed for that command as well as tell you the default. For me: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ update-alternatives --display java java - manual mode link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java /usr/bin/gij-4.3 - priority 43 /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.0 - priority 40 slave java.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/gij-wrapper-4.0.1.gz /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1 - priority 41 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java - priority 63 slave java.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/man/man1/java.1.gz /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java - priority 1043 slave java.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/man/man1/java.1.gz Current `best' version is /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java. $ --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- so my default Java is the one from Sun, version 6. > What do you advise me to do?
