| Re: REW and Ubuntu Linux
well FWIW my debian laptop has gnome 2.20.2 & java 1.6.0_03-b05 installed and REW (v4.00) works fine. Ubuntu 7.10 (AFAIK) uses the same version of gnome so there must be something specific about the ubuntu install that is doing it. I guess the starting point to debugging the problem is for you to report exactly which version of gnome you're using & then see if the rew author gives any other pointers.
installing another window manager can be pretty trivial btw, `apt-get install enlightenment` and then a temporary change to your session when you login would do the job.
Cheers
Matt
