AWT problems on the 770 status

[Philippe Laporte <philippe dot laporte at gatespacetelematics dot com>]

Hi,
    So there are two outstanding bugs. The offscreen pixmap depth
problem is supposedly fixed in the X server side. Still to be verified.

We have made progress on the problem with the Frame not showing up:

With our test case, it fails with JamVM, SableVM and CACAO, but works
with libgcj/libgij.

We are currently investigating the problem with the other VMs.

In the mean-time, does anyone have a libgcj/libgij ARM-Maemo/770 package?

Best Regards,

Philippe Laporte
