Thanks for your report > The wrapper script /usr/bin/latexdraw is set up to ignore alternatives > settings and serach for jre's. Unfortunately, /usr/bin/java doesn't necessarily point to a java installation that is actually capable of running latexdraw even though there has to be one installed that will due to the dependencies. Wrapper scripts like this are a horrid hack at best. > The speed and rendering performance of latexdraw are far superior when > run under sun-java. That's an interesting observation and not one I can reproduce. However, I have some sympathy for the point of view that if you've taken the effort to install the non-free JRE you probably want it used so I'll make the switch in any case. If you have a useful test-case where the performance is significantly and reproducibly faster with Sun JRE over OpenJDK, then the openjdk people would be quite interested in knowing about this. Please report this either to their upstream bugzilla or through "reportbug" so that it gets some attention. The more details about this performance problem you can provide the better. cheers Stuart -- Stuart Prescott www.nanoNANOnano.net
