[ jEdit-users ] FW: Help with install

[Garst A. <a....@ho...>]

Hello once Again,

I got things working by going back to jsdk1.3.1_08
so it definitely looks like a problem with the video drivers.
I'll look into updating theses.

After looking through the bug tracker I found

   Please update your gfx drivers or use
   -Dsun.java2d.d3d=3Dfalse in the jEdit starting script.

I would have thought that Sun had gotten around the problems=20
with the video drivers by now. Does anyone know about the Beta
sdk and old video drivers?

On a completely other topic:
I understand that the Windows Launcher
is unsupported. Is it in CVS?
What is it's "tag" (hope that's the right word)?
what is a good CVS client for Windows?
Any good places for a quick primer on working with, setting up, a CVS =
client?

Thanks
Andy
