Bug Description

Java apps crash under XMir (cannot load system cursor)

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
When i run XMir an Unity System Compositor, java based applications JetBrains PyCharm and IntelliJ (those i've tested) don't work correctly.
At this time i haven't tested Elicpse or NetBeans so i don't know if is general problem with OpenJDK.

Confirmed via numerous bug reports. Java is very unhappy under XMir.

This would be a bug in Java, where it is unable to deal with the Xorg software cursor. Which is a problem unrelated to Mir really. Mir just puts X in a (valid) mode where the bug is triggered.

Although, we could work around the Java bug by implementing full hardware cursor support in XMir...

So far all Jetbrains java-based products crash for me. I am running a remote desktop on a KVM virtual machine, and using the vnc with libvirt as well as nomachine software gives me this result. I have had some success somehow with Xvnc in the past.

It seems you can workaround the whole issue by doing a x11 forwarding ssh session to yourself. Use "ssh -X localhost" then run the program. Not sure why this works, but I am not complaining!

XMir 1.0 (the old Xorg extension) is now deprecated and is not being maintained or fixed. It is replaced by the new 'Xmir' binary (package 'xmir') introduced in Ubuntu 15.10 wily.

Is there any way to reproduce this bug without the old Xmir?

Note: The new Xmir uses the hardware cursor (where available on desktop). So if this bug still exists at all, it would only be on mobile (Android Mir platform).

I don't understand why this bug is closed. Many Java apps failed on Ubuntu (I was on 14.04LTS & now 16.04LTS) and the bug is always present.

I got the bug with Freemind 1.0.1 and Freeplane 1.3.15-3.

Theses are the last messages when starting Freeplane:

Thanks. That just confirms a bug on the Java side, but not Xmir:

I suggest you log a bug against the application that crashed, or the JRE etc.
