I fixed the unknown host error by adding: 127.0.0.1 hb-130.fedora hb-130 # 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomian localhost to /etc/hosts Now I get no errors at all, but still a blank UI. I've managed to click around and open a few dialogs, like the new project dialog, but no matter what I do the main window is still a blank window with a proper titlebar/window decor. Alright I jumped the gun a little on this report, after banging my head for a while today I decided why not run NetBeans under openbox in an Xnest? Well NetBeans worked fine. The difference: AIGLX/Compiz. Both NetBeans and Oracle's JDevelop suffer from a blank UI with AIGLX/Compiz enabled. Both work fine with it disabled. So I've found the culprit and would be willing to offer up whatever I can if someone would like to work on this issue. Should CLIHandler be more fail safe? Turning AIGLX effects off and on again, in Fedora Core 6 makes the window reappear. The java version used was: java version "1.6.0-rc" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-rc-b104) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-rc-b104, mixed mode, sharing) The JDK demo and other java programs runs without problems, so the problem seam to be related to Netbeans rather than the prerelease java. this is duplicate of issue 76641 Look at that issue, there some hints and probably it will work for you as well: 1. removed 2 lines from file 'netbeans-5.0/platform6/lib/nbexec'. J2D_PIXMAPS=shared export J2D_PIXMAPS 2. AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit in the environment fixes this Please let us know which one works for you. Thanks in advance. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 76641 *** Setting AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit in the environment helps, but is not enough. You will also need to have the library libXp.so.6. Unfortunately this is part of the xorg-x11-deprecated-libs package that no longer ships with Fedora Core 6, and some other modern Linux distros. Fedora Core 4 still contained libXp.so.6.2, so I copied that and made a symbolic link, and now it works. Other java apps seam to work, so preferably this should work out of the box. *** Issue 102423 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** |
