I would change from Ubuntu, but definitely change to the Sun JRE as I have
always found openjdk to be problematic.

> Hi Everyone,

> There is a UI bug which prevents the foreground window's widgets from
> gaining focus when you click on them.  The text cursor remains in the
> background window, even when the foreground window is active and I
> click in the Grammar Name widget.
>
> The most ironic twist is that if you use the GIMPs screenshot facility
> to get an image of the window, it will give focus to the foreground
> window's widget.  Using GIMP screenshot for widget focus is not a
> usable solution.  (The screenshot does not therefore show the issue.)
>
> This bug has been present in all AntlrWorks / Ubuntu AMD64 releases for
> at least two years and since at least Ubuntu 8.10.  (I try AntlrWorks
> every six months or so.)

> Things I've checked:

> chris@chris-linux-desktop:~$ sudo update-alternatives --config java
> There are 3 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).
