(Answer) (Category) FAQ-O-Matic : (Category) Linux- and Solaris-specific :
My XFree86 dumps core when I try to run java applications which use java3d. What's wrong?
Java3D on linux (and perhaps on Solaris) uses the OpenGL library. NVidia's accellerated XFree86 driver uses an NVidia-supplied OpenGL library which appears to contain a few bugs which Java3D trips over.

If you're using NVidia's drivers, check their website for additional information, updates, etc.

General workarounds for this issue include:

  1) Switch from manufacturer-supplied XFree86 driver modules to XFree86's own modules
  2) Install more recent drivers
  3) Install more recent OpenGL libs for the current drivers
  4) Upgrade/downgrade XFree86 itself
  5) Switch to a different XFree86 driver module, ie change from 'nv' to 'svga'.

Previous: (Answer) I installed JBuilder 5 on Mandrake 8.0. Whenever I build a project, JBuilder's JVM dumps core with the following message: An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM. Unexpected Signal : 11 occurred at PC=0x501c33a8 Function name=PV_ProcessSequencerEvents Library=/usr/java/jdk1.3.1/jre/lib/i386/libjsound.so Current Java thread:at com.sun.media.sound.MixerThread.runNative(Native Method)
Next: (Answer) I want to use JBuilder with a remote Xterminal using Exceed or some other remote X package, or even an HDS terminal. Why doesn't this work well?
