Does recompiling the source help?
recompiling the source under Blackdown JDK 1.2.2/GNU/Linux did not fix the problem. i also recompiled without '-g' and still had the problem.
recompiling under Sun JDK 1.3 (build 1.3.0beta_refresh-b09) resulted in a working jEdit on my GNU/Linux 2.2 system. i have not tried the resulting binaries under another JDK.
using jEdit 2.6pre2 recompiled with the Sun javac under JDK 1.3, i was able to run it without problems under Blackdown JDK 1.2.2.
I have recompiled org.gjt.sp.jedit.io.IORequest against Sun jdk1.3/Winnt and everything seems to work fine now.

I confirm, version 2.6pre2 does not work with either JDK 1.2.2 or JDK 1.3 as is. Even if recompiled with JDK 1.2.2 it still does not work. However, recompiling with JDK 1.3 make it *partially* work thereafter. If afterwards you run it with JDK 1.2.2 everything seems to work (at least file opening and plugin manager). However, if run with JDK 1.3, the plugin manager fails to find any module from the web site ...
Fixed with the new IORequest.java I sent to the mailing list.
