Hi,
I've mailed this list before about problems with the number pad on linux
jdk117v_1a. I just tried it on the jdk117_v2_x86-glibc2.0 prerelease
version from wisp.net and it still exists. Basically it's bug id #365 in
the jitterbug database.
The num pad works on jdk116_v5 to some extent (the Enter key doesn't cause
an ActionEvent as it should), but it's completely broken on both
jdk117_v1a and v2.
It would be very nice for those of us trying to use java on the client
side if this could be fixed someday soon. I'm attaching a small test
program that can be used to show the problem.
Here's my system info:
Linux_Dist: RedHat 5.2
Libc_ver 2.0.7
Swing 1.1
thanks,
Kelly
