guess screen is blank and blinks

[Shivashis Saha]

Hi,

I am new to Guess, and tried to install guess.
I downloaded, 1.03 beta version, and installed Java and JavaMedia
thing.
I did set the Guess_home with correct path, but when I start guess,
the
window is black or blinks depending on where I put my mouse.

I am using Vista. Can anyone recommend what went wrong in installation
or if I am missing something?
I can send a picture of the screen which is jet black and some
buttons
appear and disappear on a random basis.

Please help!

Thanks
Shivashis

Hi Shivashis,

I don't know what went wrong with you, but I think it is better if you start with this more recent version that you can download directly from:  http://graphexploration.cond.org/guess.zip

Greetings,

This version works fine. I did try to find some solution for the problem I faced with the old version. I think the problem was caused by clash Windows and Java. The error log says:

RE version: 6.0_16-b01
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (14.2-b01 mixed mode windows-x86 )
# Problematic frame:
# C  [msvcrt.dll+0xa3ed]
#

However, I could not find any solution for it so far. I did submit a bug report in Java. If anyone needs more information, I would be happy to provide.

But, this new version works great!!!!
Thanks a lot!

Thanks,
Shivashis

Sometimes that's caused by the OpenGL option. Try removing it from
the .sh or .bat file (the part that says -Dsun.java2d.opengl=True)
