Swing Java 8 Linux Radeon Crash

J.W.C.Jul 3 2014

I'm developing a Swing app on a Linux workstation.  When resizing the window of the running app, I get a crash caused by something (I assume the JVM) trying to initialize/load the linux kernel radeon module.  I'm not using that module.  In fact, I have the radeon module blacklisted because I'm using the native fglrx catalyst driver, which requires nomodeset, and the radeon module doesn't work with nomodeset.  Running the app under Java 7, this does not occur.

Nothing special about the app: a JFrame with a toolbar and a JTable.

Any insight/tips/suggestions?

Details:

Java 8 (crashes):

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0-b132)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.0-b70, mixed mode)

Java 7 (works):

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_60-b19)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.60-b09, mixed mode)

System:

Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP x86_64 GNU/Linux

X.Org X Server 1.12.4

Hmm, it seems that this forum has some issues(or 'features')

Post above is reply to this thread: Image field cannot refresh when navigate records in jsf page so I don't know how this became totally new thread

Dario,

As you said, this topic is off the original thread (Image field cannot refresh when navigate records in jsf page), but is valuable to me. so I branch it as a new one.

I have two furthur question2:

1.Your suggestion to refresh page data seems a bit complicated, does it the best practice for the job?

--It seems, we also need to use Active Data technology?

2.Can have more evidence or reference docs on this sayings:

"normal way" to refresh page is usually very bad for applications based on JSF/ADF

Thanks.

I use the Actions-->branch feature.

But I cannot edit the first branched post, and you become the author of this thread.

BAZ, now things get messi

Your intention was good, however branching away the answer isn't something you, we or anybody should do. Now @"kdario" is in the drivers seat for this thread, not you. It's a flaw in the software that you can branch away part of the thread, not your fault.

Anyway I suggest that you open a new thread with your follow up question referring to the original thread. Abandon this one, please. We are happy to answer to the new thread.

Timo and kdario,

I'd glad to open a new thread for the topic. and thank you all very much for your patiences and kindness.

I think the 'Action-->.branch' is an useful feature when some improvement been made, that is:

When make the branching, the operator (which should be the author of the original thread) should be still the 'driver of the new thread',

and can edit the title and post content for the new thread.(but now cannot).

The benefit of above feature is :

1. the new thread usaually will have some relation with the original one, so keep the relation between them will make the contents/threads in this forum more relevent.

A relevant connected network of information will be more useful than a vast volume of unrelated segements of posts.

2.little inputing will be needed by branch if the author can edit the original branch out post.

I agree with you, however this is not the right place to discuss this. There is already an enhancement request (idea as it called in the new forum wording) for this at where you can add your comment and vote for the request to get implemented.
