instaltaion problem - linux - Failed to set display mode

[theblackrabbit]

Hi,
so I've downloaded the zip file and extracted it as I was told in the instalation guide. Then i browsered to the folder through my command line and typed:

[pawel@localhost lwjgl-1.0beta4]$ java -cp .:res:jar/lwjgl.jar:jar/lwjgl_test.jar:jar/lwjgl_util.jar:jar/lwjgl_fmod3.jar:jar/lwjgl_devil.jar:jar/jinput.jar: -Djava.library.path=native/linux org.lwjgl.test.WindowCreationTest


What happend then, well a new Window was open (I thought 'that's cool') but  on my console I got the following error:

The following keys are available:
ESCAPE:         Exit test
ARROW Keys:     Move window when in non-fullscreen mode

0-8:            Selection of display modes
