memory ...

for now, it is recommanded to do a "gc" before starting the gui with "startawt".
In low memory conditions (if you have less than 256Mb of RAM), it's hard to run the gui (the gc has some bugs).

What's your configuration ? Do you have any GUI displayed ?

Configuration

I have an intel core duo with 2gig ram. I get some gui sometimes (blue screen, pointer, no start menu) other times I get the whole thing. But it always hangs after awhile. I'd send the stack trace but I don't know how to capture it.

There are no more great men, only great opportunists.

I am seeing the same thing ...

... running JNode on VMWare with 512Mb and doing the gc blah blah.

When I click on 'Start", the graphical UI is freezing in the process of painting the menu. This is happening consistently for me.

When I ALT-F12 to kill the GUI, I see the following message on the console in red:

"IOException:java.io.FileNotFoundException: can't find /jifs/lib/flavormap.properties while loading default flavormap.properties file: /jifs/lib//flavormap.properties"

(The '//' is not a typo ... that is what it says.)
