Hi Deniel,

I am facing similar problem on Ubuntu Edgy 6.10 and symptoms are exactly same what you have mentioned. My JDK version is 1.5.0_7.

Thanks,

Raj

Hi,

I am experiencing a big issue using OFBiz Point-Of-Sale application over Linux 
(Debian Etch) with Java JDK 1.5.0.x

The problem is that the POS main screen behaves like a modal blocking window in Linux. Once the 
main screen is displayed, you cannot switch to another window of the system with Alt+Tab. What is 
worst, when the application tries to display an "Alert message" (like for example 
"Product Not Found" when you press SKU) the alert is actually presented behind the main 
screen, instead of on top of it. So, you cannot accept the message and you can neither do anything 
with the main screen: the application is blocked. Then I have to log in with a different TTY and 
kill the java process.

This behaviour is not reproduced over Windows XP with the same Java JDK: you 
can swith to other application with Alt+Tab and alert messages are properly 
displayed in top.

I just wanted to ask if anyone has tried POS over Linux and experienced such a 
problem. I'm a newbie to OFBiz and maybe I am doing something wrong. Otherwise, 
this is a big issue that has to be put in Jira. BTW, should I put the issue in 
Jira myself or is it restricted to developers ?

Please advice,

Daniel.
