When I tried to execute demos in /opt/ibm-jdk-bin-1.4.1/share/demo/jfc/SwingSet2, I got an error: Segmentation fault. I tried also other apps like compiling apache-ant, the same message appeared. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter dir /opt/ibm-jdk-bin-1.4.1/share/demo/jfc/SwingSet2 2. Execute java -jar SwingSet2.jar" 3.

Markus Ok I've thought this over. Here's what we're going to do. I think the right thing to do is to create a new profile for NTPL which will allow for java support. This will also allow for use of the 26 headers as well. So let the fun begin! ok this should be fixed with the 1.4.2 jdk, the 2004.3 profile and USE="nptl" enjoy! stick a fork in it |
