Description _ hair 2006-08-21 22:07:36 UTC 
Running on Gentoo GNU/Linux 2.6.17, Xgl (Compiz), Gnome 2.14.2, and the ATI
graphics driver.
NetBeans trunk with JDK 1.6

Trying to drag a TopComponent out of netbeans into Floating mode crashes the
whole Xgl window manager. No other known problems in Xgl for any application,
native or java.
#76641 cannot be reproduced either.
Comment 1 Marian Mirilovic 2006-08-22 08:53:03 UTC 
What build of JDK 1.6 are you using ?

Does it mean the JVM crashed, right ? Do you have any log file ?
Comment 2 _ hair 2006-08-22 09:14:42 UTC 
It crashed Xgl, and hence every appliation I had open in gnome :-(
Comment 3 _ hair 2006-08-22 09:15:00 UTC 
java version "1.6.0-beta2"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-beta2-b86)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-beta2-b86, mixed mode, sharing)
Comment 4 David Simonek 2006-08-22 10:35:29 UTC 
Clearly JVM has crashed, any java app can bring down the system only through JVM
crash AFAIK.

hair, we would like to report this to JDK team, so please:

- there should be log file in current directory from where NetBeans was run. On
my Win, log file is always named such as hs_err_pidXXXX.log. Please attach it if
possible.

- try to run with newer JDK 1.6.0 (I guess build 95 is out?) and reproduce the
problem - I know that may be painful, perhaps create new user account so that
possible crash won't destroy any of your settings...

Thanks.

A search across my whole filesystem gives no results, ie
find / -name hs_err_* -print

I'll try upgrading jdk, and finding more useful information...
Comment 6 _ hair 2006-09-07 10:49:27 UTC 
I have not been able to reproduce this anymore.
(I've upgraded xgl and compiz a few times since).
