The man page states one should try to use JRE 1.4 or set an environment variable. I've tried both versions but still I only get a greyish/ whitish window when running thinking rock [1], an application written in Java. It seems that the window elements are loaded successfully, since I get to open a dialogbox, though the whole window stays grey/ white. I also tried to use wmname as suggested in [2] and set the window name to some random name, but, again, no luck. Can someone tell me how to get TR to start properly. Also the app doesn't start using the whole screen, but only a part of it. I'd prefer tr to start maximized. Can someone please help me out? Am I doing anything wrong? I use Debian Squeeze and used the awesome deb package (v3.2.1). Thanks for your help! Cheers, Torsten [1] http://www.trgtd.com.au/ [2] http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00244.htmlWhich names did you try? AFAIR, "compiz" was a sure bet.
I had installed freemind, another java application, and it did not start properly : grey background and little window. I discovered that the deb package did not install its own openjdk-6-jre dependency... After installing it, it worked fine. You may verify all dependencies are installed.
I did not try freemind since the awesome 3.2 upgrade, and I just saw that freemind does the same thing (grey background and little window). I try it with KDE, it works perfectly, and going back to awesome, it works now well...
I hope that helps... Jean-Luc Duflot -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
