Freeze under Debian linux

[markush]

Hi!

I've got a problem with the new .96 release.

First the libXxf86vm.so.1 is not available under debian/sid, so I googled and found a solution for that:

cd /usr/X11R6/lib/
ld --whole-archive -shared -o libXxf86vm.so.1 libXxf86vm.a
ldconfig

Now I can start my lwjgl application again...
I don't know for what this lib is needed, in .95 it wasn't needed.

But to my next problem:

I'm using the new AWTGLCanvas and as sonn as i call canvas.swapBuffers() the whole system freezes. Only hard rebooting helps there...

No error log or something is saved...

The same application works fine under Windows XP.

Hope you can help me

That libXxf86vm.so.1 issue is strange. Like you said, 0.95 didn't need it, so I wonder what's going on?

I tried your fix, but it didn't work on my Debian sid box... guess it's my turn to google.

Ah, looks like I needed to

apt-get install xlibs-static-dev

before I could use your fix.

I've updated the Linux makefile to statically link to libXxf86vm (it's 17kb anyway).
