Thanks Andrew, to help us debug could you try the following and report back with what happens? 1) what is the output of: java -version 2) edit (as superuser) /usr/bin/arduino and change the last line from: java -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel processing.app.Base "$@" to java -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel -Djava.awt.headless=true processing.app.Base "$@" then try running the arduino command from the menu or command line 3) change the default JRE to openjdk $ update-alternatives --config java then try running arduino I think it might have something to do with having both the sun and openjdk jres installed. ~Scott -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
