No graphic display (window) when starting jedit - java process hangs
Submitted by rdehmel on Thursday, 15 March, 2012 - 15:57
Hi,
I have just installed jre 1.6 on my very very old Linux box. Suse LinuxEnterprise 1.0 (SLES Cool

de/jedit> java -version
java version "1.6.0_31"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_31-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 20.6-b01, mixed mode, sharing)
de/jedit> uname -a
Linux atgws-rdl 2.4.19-64GB-SMP #1 SMP Mon Oct 21 18:48:05 UTC 2002 i686 unknown
de/jedit>

When I try to install jedet the graphic window does not popup. One of the java processes uses 100% CPU time.

Trying text mode -> Installation of jedet is OK!

Trying to start jedit same as above: No window and one of the java processes uses 100% CPU time.

All other graphic stuff is fine on the linux box.

Any idea?

PS: I love jedit, because I use it already on windows.

Settings Directory

Hi,
no real idea, but sometimes it helps to rename (or delete) Your Settings Directory. But before doing this, be sure that jEdit isn't running in background (kill all Java processes).

No graphic window at all

Because there is also no graphic window from the install process,
I assume the root cause more deeper in the java enviroment.
Is there a simple java test program using a similar graphics interface?
