JDK 1.3-linux display problem

Hello,

After reading that the jdk 1.3-linux port worked under -current, I uprgraded using a fresh snapshot (Jul 5 base, Jul 11 x11). (The efforts to make this run have been appreciated!)

After installing the Redhat 8.0 emulation, Opera 7.x from ports, and the problem java applications (in this case Cgoban2), I can reproduce like this:

  o run x11
  o run opera
  o run cgoban2

At this point, most (excepting the first) cgoban2 displays load containing large grey areas that ``cover'' parts of the application.

The workaround has been simple, I just run and lightly use cgoban2 before opera, leaving cgoban2 running until I want to use it.

I had always thought this a memory problem. So, I have ran java with the -Xms argument, and tried the other VMs (none work except ``classic''), and made sure my ulimit was high enough:

  time(cpu-seconds) unlimited

  file(blocks)         unlimited
  coredump(blocks)     unlimited
  data(kbytes)         1048576
  stack(kbytes)        16384
  lockedmem(kbytes)    322289
  memory(kbytes)       965828
  nofiles(descriptors) 128
  processes            532
Do you need help?X

This is a machine with 1GB of RAM doing nothing else. cgoban2 is not the only java app that does this, any that I have tried do, that have a display.
It is a problem whether using Ion or fvwm2. This and the other apps run correctly under Linux and Windows.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Brian
