heh. yeah, but that's only after removing it (eclipse) and
reÄnstalling it ... blah.
i want to love netbeans, but i haven't gotten the thing to work with
an external editor (vim!) yet.

hm, i'm still running version 4.1.0-16woody1 of xserver-xfree86, and
have never had problems with it with my 2.4 kernel ... leads me to
believe it's kernel-related.

but i'm using fvwm and xdm ... no kde around here at all.

<sigh> ... i just wanted the pretty 2.6 kernel! oh well, looks like
this problem _is_ kernel-related.

this is when it's happened for me so far -- only when i'm using it.

me neither -- seems kernel-related.
