start without noticing the difference (however you'll have to tweak with the startup scripts to make them use your VM). You can also try with NetBeans from Sun (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download-netbeans.html), but, again, you'll need to trick the Linux-i386 version. Good luck! Lucio.

ted, because it's the same with all the resolutions from 1600x1200 down to 640x480. The problem shows both in Woody and Sarge (Sarge has the 2.6.7-1 kernel).
