Is socket multicast bug fixed in 2.0.37?
I just read on http://www.linux.org.uk/diary/ that kernel 2.0.37 should be released within a week. Does anyone know if this kernel still has the socket multicast issue that's holding up the port? If it does, now might be a good time to suggest it to the kernel folks... If it doesn't, though, it might make a stronger case to Sun to say that the JCK is passed on both kernel 2.2 (latest) and 2.0.37 (latest release on old stable branch). After all, Sun themselves provide OS patches that you need before you can install Java on old versions of Solaris! Just some thoughts... sorry if this is another of those annoying 1.2 posts ;) Stuart. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: terrible fonts in linux-jdk1.2
I get the warning about zapf dingbats too (lots of times on starting a single swing app) and the application seems to get the font metrics wrong - the text appears at the normal size, but there are huge gaps between lines (as if it was all doublespaced). The application in question is jEdit, which is available from www.gjt.org/~sp/jedit.html. Unfortunately, the version I am using is 1.4pre1, which is now obsoleted by 1.4final. I'm downloading this now to see if it has the same problem. I'll post back shortly and let you know. Thanks for the port guys - this is great! Stuart. PS could you include my address in any replies to this, as I read the list by the archive on the web and it only updates daily. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The same issue affects jEdit 1.4final. I don't have any other swing/AWT applications to test, but I do know that jEdit works okay on JDK1.2 on windows. If there's any other information I can give to help track this down, let me know. By the way, the source code to jEdit is available at the url that I gave, in case that helps tracking down the problem. I doubt it's a jEdit issue, but it might help to figure out which method it's calling that isn't working. Oh, and I forgot to give information about my system before - it's a Red Hat 5.2 box (upgraded from 5.1) with KDE/kwm as the window manager. I haven't changed anything with the X server or the X fonts from the default that came with RH. Thanks again for the port - this is a great day for Java and Linux ;) Stuart. > PS could you include my address in any replies to this, as I read the > list by the archive on the web and it only updates daily. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
