They fail to open properly.
The correct fix then is probably a simple wrapper script. If it is
passed any arguments, pass them along to javaws, otherwise pass
"-viewer". Then the .desktop file can point to that script.
Here's an example of such a script.
======
#!/bin/sh
if [ "$#" -eq 0 ]; then
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.10/bin/javaws -viewer
else
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.10/bin/javaws "$@"
fi
======
I tested and confirmed that it fixes the problem. The Exec line in the
desktop file I tested is:
Exec=/path/to/script %u
Also, is there a reason that sun-java6-jre doesn't
provide /usr/bin/javaws? cacao-oj6-jre and openjdk-6-jre do.
Perhaps this script could be installed as /usr/bin/javaws. If so,
perhaps it should be subject to the alternatives system
like /usr/bin/java.
