Re: unsuccessful GHA check on Linux: this seems to be an intermittent failure in one test in graphics. We already have this on the backlog as [JDK-8357459](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8357459). I re-ran the GHA Linux job - https://github.com/lukostyra/jfx/actions/runs/22580397605 - and it passed. Not sure if GitHub will eventually realize this re-run happened, but leaving out this note for reviewers. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/2092#issuecomment-3985072899
