Hey guys, I am all for getting things going again. I am not a programmer but I can relay my clients issues and help find bugs.
On Patrick's issues re: the splash screen, I had the same splash screen issue but the latest cvs version fixed that for me. We are running on Linux as well including Fedora Core 4 Centos and Ubuntu. ON Sun jdk 1.4.2_09 and 1.5.0_05. I agree Ubuntu is very nice. 5.10 is a great improvement over 5.04 We have found a few issues. Should we all be putting these issues in the bug database on the sourceforge site so they don't get lost? Thanks!
