The same issue affects jEdit 1.4final. I don't have any other swing/AWT
applications to test, but I do know that jEdit works okay on JDK1.2 on
windows. If there's any other information I can give to help track this
down, let me know.
By the way, the source code to jEdit is available at the url that I
gave, in case that helps tracking down the problem. I doubt it's a jEdit
issue, but it might help to figure out which method it's calling that
isn't working.
Oh, and I forgot to give information about my system before - it's a Red
Hat 5.2 box (upgraded from 5.1) with KDE/kwm as the window manager. I
haven't changed anything with the X server or the X fonts from the
default that came with RH.
Thanks again for the port - this is a great day for Java and Linux ;)
