Ok, it looks like significant changes implemented in Gnome 2.20 GTK+ have broken LookAndFeel support in Java.

The gtk look and feel works fine for me here (with netbeans) as long as I use the openSUSE packages of sun's java. Sun's java packages do indeed cause crashes.

I use OpenSuse 1.6 packages and I can't even install Netbeans.

What error do you get trying to install? I just installed netbeans via zypper from the non-oss repo without issue. jpr@gambit:~> rpm -qa | grep java java-1_5_0-sun-1.5.0_update12-23 java-1_5_0-sun-plugin-1.5.0_update12-23 java-1_6_0-sun-1.6.0.u1-26 jpr@gambit:~> rpm -qa | grep beans netbeans-5.0-155

I tried the famous export fix, but I still think that the problem is Java's integration in OpenSuse 10.3, because many times it refers to the problem on a missing library. I really consider switching back to Ubuntu as a solution.

What did you do to install netbeans? What library is referred to as missing? I see some warnings about additional jar files to install for more functionality on first start and that I was using just a jre instead of a jdk, however both: netbeans and netbeans --laf com.work just fine under GNOME for sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel launch netbeans and allow me to start the project wizard. Not using the sloppy lock export fix. -JP -- JP Rosevear Novell, Inc. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Adam, as per Benji are you using Sun's java from 10.3?

I have tested running Eclipse with both the SuSE jdk and Sun jdk and it fails.

Upstream I see one possible issue: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479929

This implies 'export GTK_MODULES=' may work around the issue, does that solve it for you?

When I unset GTK_MODULES then Eclipse works and I can call the debugger and set check points. Works for me. -H -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
