[OT] - problem with java

[Micha Feigin <michf@post.tau.ac.il>]

Hello,

I tried replacing the internal java matlab is using (either 1.1.8 or
1.3.1) since it is causing problems with window sizes.
I installed j2re 1.4.1 from blackdown in the right place, pointed to it
and add a link in <jredir>/lib/i386/hotspot -> <jredir>/lib/i386/client.
This causes matlab to start but it locks down after opening the windows
and starting all the threads.
I'm suspicious that its a thread sinc lock or something but I don't know
java that much.
Any ideas on what it could be and how to solve it?
