If the PsychToolbox were easy to install I could help debug this. But installation of this toolbox has been made somewhat invoked, to put it mildly. E.g., I have no plans at all to install the toolbox makers' favorite svn client if I already have another svn client installed (Tortoise in my case). Without having access to the function Screen() I can't say what is going wrong. It may very well be (and I suspect it to be) a problem in the PsychToolbox itself. Does it need the java package? The java-1.2.8 package has been tested fairly intensively. That said, 64-bit operating systems have yielded more issues with java - search this ML or the help-octave ML for related posts. I suggest to contact the PsychToolbox authors and ask them to help solve your problem.
