Sideswipe staggered into the Black Sun and said:
I am having a refresh problem with an app I am running on RHEL
3.0. It's a Java app, which I am sure doesn't help at all
Describe the "refresh problem" more thoroughly. Which version of which
JRE are you using? Which widget-set analogue is this Java thing using?
Is it using XV or OpenGL? What's the name of this Java app?
have no problems on windows
"Write once, debug everywhere" is not just a catchphrase, it's a way of
life. It's possible the app's programmers were lazy and didn't test it
on anything but the JRE they had on their machines.
which doesn't use anything like X. I know there is a way to disable
using X and use the direct HW buffer. I am just not sure how.
Um, not quite. GUI apps use X, even when they're using XV or OpenGL
(those are both implemented as extensions to the core X protocol under
Linux). A few apps could use SVGAlib, but they were always in the
minority and JREs require X. There were a few people trying to make a
replacement for X. They gave up years ago AFAIK. The solution to your
app's problem probably doesn't involve X at all, but the JRE.
