[lug] Installing XWindows

[George Sexton]

With JDK 1.4 or higher add
 
 
-Djava.awt.headless=true 
 
to your startup. You can then make Swing graphical calls without and X
server.

Subject: [lug] Installing XWindows


Hi,
 
Is it possible/advisable to install x windows on a console-only box? I
can't seem to find any docs on this, which makes me wonder it it's too
painful to try. The reason I want to do this invloves a long trail of
tears in trying to get an existing web/app server to connect to a new
Oracle9i db server, in which the last recourse I can think of now before
rebuilding the db box is to upgrade the java JDK and drivers.
Unfortunately, it seems that the JDK assumes you are running a windows
system on Linux.
 
Thanks,
 
--M
