Hi All

We are running the NetBSD/i386 port of JDK1.1.6, which seems to work
perfectly, except for one problem: the windows written with the Swing
classes open at random positions on the screen, and not where specified
in the programs written. The file "Readme.NETBSD" in /usr/pkg/java says
"There are some known problems with window positioning that are actual
JDK 1.1.6 bugs supposedly fixed in 1.1.7". This would explain this
problem. Can anyone out there tell me
	- has anyone overcome/corrected this bug, or knows how?
	- has anyone had other problems with this JDK1.1.6 port that I
should know about?
	- are there any plans to port later JDKs (1.2 in particular) to
NetBSD/i386?
	- are there any plans to port JDK to any other Platforms (arm32
in partic.)?

The other problem I am having is when we use intensive graphics in an
application, it seems to run inconsistently and crash at times. Any
experience/solutions here?

Thanks
 Bruce Martin
