Thanks Hussein, sorry for my confusing trouble report. Yesterday I "found" some 1.4 Java stuff at my machine.
So probably my trouble timeline should look like this: Trouble timeline: ================ 1. To get running another Java application I installed http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/devel/j2re1.4 http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/devel/j2sdk1.4 I don't know why Ubuntu named the 1.4 version *j2re1.4* But I got it :D 2. I downloaded your XMLmind 3.7.0 package. It workes fine - excluding the drag&drop feature. You told me why. Thanks again :D 3. I removed the j2re1.4 and j2sdk1.4 deb packages. 4. I installed http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper-backports/libs/sun-java6-jre 5. I tried to launch XMLmind 3.7.0 by doubleclicking the //xxe-perso-3_7_0/bin/xxe shellscript. At the gnome-system-monitor I can see a heavy CPU load (my matured machine is still thinking the 400MHz & 196MB RAM supported way :-) After few minutes no noticable CPU load is visible and - XMLMind 3.7.0 didn't launch. 6. Currently I download the http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/libs/sun-java5-jre deb package. If this won't work I will erase my current Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 LTS version and start a new fresh Ubuntu setup. cheers, Kay PS. Sorry for this DITA task trouble reporting style. BTW, Louise Kasemeier published a nice DITA XMLmind tutorial on the net: http://dita.xml.org/lone-dita-dita-community-small-documentation-teams BTW2nd: Could you add your XMLmindEditor to the Ubuntu (Debian) package repositories? May be similar like the flashplugin does? It would be great to see your applications at the Synaptic package manager :D http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/web/flashplugin-nonfree https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas Hussein Shafie <hussein at xmlmind.com> schrieb: Kay Wiebold wrote: > > thanks for information.

I'm not sure that upgrading from Java 1.5 to Java 1.6 would solve your problem. Drag & Drop works fine on Linux with any Java[tm] runtime starting from version 1.5 (like sun-java5-jre). I mean: it didn't work with Java 1.4 because this *ancient* version implemented the Motif DnD protocol. But as of version 1.5, Java implements the XDnD protocol which is used by all Gnome and KDE applications. --------------------------------- Ihr erstes Baby?
