which desktop for gcc tools

[Scott Durrant]

Hi,

I apologize for asking a question that was so off topic.  Recently I tried
to compile gcj on Solaris 2.7.  I decided instead to build a linux box
using RedHat 6.2. 

I wasn't sure if there were any known problems with desktop software and
gcj development.  Soon I hope to contribute to the project.  Again I
apologize for the inconvenience.
