I assume you already opened a JIRA ticket and filed a reproducible test case, so Oracle can fix the issue ASAP? ;-) -Markus

We're not in production yet but have already some testing embedded systems with it running on a [possible]customer site. The main drawback is not having the same performance running from X than running directly from framebuffer. By not using X we have a other big drawback too that is not having x11vnc working, so every developer need to have a monitor with HDMI attached to our device. I have a task to "look for possible solutions" but I haven't found time to attend it yet.
