Thanks to tlayton_at_work in the Ubuntu Forums, there is a handy little work around for the Sun Java 6 issues in Hardy. $ echo "export LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK=true" >> ~/.bash_profile Works like a champ, and now I am back to creating GUIs with Netbeans, and running my code in Eclipse. Thanks tlayton_at_work, you rock!

Who is Rich Johnson?

My name is Rich Johnson. I am a professional developer, as well as an open source enthusiast, advocate, and author. I spend any free time I can get cycling.

Back in 1994 I was introduced to the world of open source software by installing Linux on a PC I had purchased from the Navy Exchange. At that time I had no idea what I was going up against, but never once did I let myself get frustrated, as Windows had already done that to me. Since then, I have completely immersed myself into the open source world and have been an active contributor.
