I'm using the linux version.

The test that causes a hang for me is:
        java -jar ${JAVA_HOME}/demo/jfc/Java2D/Java2Demo.jar
(Typically the application will start and the intro animation
will run - sometimes it hangs during the animation; sometimes
a bit of user input such as clicking on one of the tabs prompts
the hang.)

Thanks for the reply,
d
