I have a problem on Linux (Ubuntu 8.10 32bit), processing GUI won't start.

If i run java -verbose, i have some java information:

[Loaded processing.app.syntax.JEditTextArea$AdjustHandler$1 from
file:/home/pierre/usr/processing-1.0/lib/pde.jar]
[Loaded java.io.InterruptedIOException from shared objects file]

And nothing else, no gui. I must hit CTRL+C to quit.

If i use strace, i have this kind of message:

[pid 9738] futex(0x99ce328, 0x81 /* FUTEX_??? */, 1) = 0

I have no problem with processing 0157.

That's probably either your system not liking Java 6u10, which is included
in the 1.0 release, or you're getting hit by one of the bugs that's fixed
in 1.0.1. But I'm guessing it's the former, in which case you need to just
replace the Java installation as described in the Linux reference:

Hello,

Thank's for your reply. If i use java 1.6_10 from Sun or java from
processing 0157, i have same results, i can't start processing. I will use
processing 0157 until 1.0.1 available.

Regard's
Pierre

1.0.1 is already available, just visit the download page.

With 1.0.1 everything is OK ;-)

Thank's for your help
