Binary package hint: netbeans5.5

I installed NetBeans 5.5 from packages in Hardy.
When I start from menu, doesn't do anything.

From command line:

duka@duka-work:~$ netbeans

It is JDK issue. NetBeans cannot handle it anyhow. Recently I tested it should be fixed in JDK 6u10 and JDK 7. Both are available as binary snapshot. Unfortunately it is not fixed in any FCS JDK. There is mentioned some workaround by patching some lib in JDK (search for it). I also saw that it is caused by staticaly linked Xinerama lib into JDK .so lib but I am not expect in this area so I cannot confirm. You can also use IcedTea as workaround. IcedTea is available on Hardy.

Closing as it is not problem in NetBeans.
