I see. If you were still interested in me testing shit with Ubuntu, you'd have to tell me exactly what source code file to download and open and compile in order to reliably reproduce. (Me writing Java code? Fuggedaboutit.) But I guess you're already checked out that angle with Gentoo and FreeBSD, so you may not need me to do that. The only thing I thought, in terms of the bug's behaviour, are we sure it's not just a missing font or two? I did note that when I installed netbeans on Ubuntu, it required me to install these additional fonts:
ttf-bengali-fonts ttf-kannada-fonts ttf-oriya-fonts ttf-telugu-fonts ttf-wqy-zenhei Of course, if you're happy to leave it and just use Eclipse, then well, I guess that also settles things. regards, --ropers 2009/6/12 MANI <[email protected]>: > I tried netbeans 5.5 and 6.0 on Gentoo and FreeBSD previously with no > problem, So I guess it's a OPENBSD issue with netbeans, also searching in > Google about "netbeans ouput font problem" only returns result with OpenBSD. > I didn't try to reproduce problems on another machine but for me steps were > like this: > 1- using -current on i386 > 2- sudo pkg_add -v jdk-1.7.0.00b43p0 > 3- sudo pkg_add -v netbeans > 4- create a java project on netbeans and edit and compile few times. > > But problems with netbeans seems to be growing, after few hours of working > It's very slow and hangs when I try to delete files from project, also > starting netbeans with my default project takes 3 to 5 minutes!
