Please, evaluate this issue. Thanks. Can you be more specific as to which type of linux and version. Mandrake Linux 9.2, KDE 3.1 Almost each time I install NB I get some pane half/completely unwritten. It's disconcerting, since it shows a blank screen where, for instance, should appear that the installer is ready to start and the space that will be used. Karel, Can you reproduce this issue? I don't have a mandrake system to do any testing on. Lluis, Does this happen with different jdk's or just with 1.4.2_02? I think jdk 1.4.2_04 has just been released so I would be interested in knowing if the problem goes away with a different jdk. If 1.4.2_0X still has problems, try 1.4.1_0X. I'm sorry to have to ask you to do the legwork for me but I can't even try to reproduce this without a machine to test on. I haven't seen this problem on any of the platforms we do have. Ok, give me two hours. I'm using J2SDK 1.4.2_03, only the simplified issue form for NetCAT participants does not have this option. Ok, this is what I get: J2SDK 1.4.2_03: At fourth attempt the Installation Preview Panel was blank. J2SDK 1.4.2_04: I give up, after 10 attempts hasn't failed. J2SDK 1.5.0 (Beta): At first attempt the Installation Preview Panel was blank. Some comments on the tests. I ensured which JVM was working by renaming J2SDK folders. This leads to installer not finding JVM, thus I had to start it using -is:javahome parameter. [ 3.6 RC1 ] [ JDK VERSION : J2SE 1.4.2_04 ] Preview panel was blank, no information on it. proposed release note: "Description: On Mandrake Linux 9.2, some installer panes do not initially display contents. Workaround: Manually resize the installer pane so that the text appears." I just added the issue to the relntotes. Viewable here in a few moments: http://testwww.netbeans.org/community/releases/36/relnotes.html I just installed NB3.6 final release and it happened again. I changed summary to concrete which panel isn't showing. Is this still applicable to 4.0 installer? NB4.0 RC1 - JDK1.5 It works fine. Thanks, RELNOTE kw removed. Please reopen if it happens with latest installer. |
