Hi Orly,
#
#With the Sun JDK, installation works, but starting up LimeWire results in
#a hung LimeWire (it only gets as far as the splash screen).
So far, I've used Sun's, and IBM's JDK. Both of them are glibc-2.1.x
based.
At the Sun JDK 1.3.x installation guide, there's a workaround that you
might want to try this..
* The newer glibc-2.2.x libraries cannot correctly handle initial thread
stack sizes larger than 6 MB. This can cause a segmentation fault on come
Linux platforms that use the newer libraries. Such platforms include Red
Hat 7.0, SuSe 7.2, and Debian 2.2. The problem will not occur on Linux
platforms that are using glibc-2.1.x such as Red Hat 6.1 and 6.2. It will
also not affect Red Hat 7.1 because it uses a different thread stack
layout. This problem is being tracked as bug 4466587.
Workaround - Use "ulimit -s 2048" in bash shell or "limit stacksize
2048" in tcsh to limit the initial thread stack to 2 MB.
