OK - Button in 'link'-Menu doesn't work

[posersnus]

Hello there,

I recently installed XMind 3.0.3 under Ubuntu 9.10 and it works fine,
but there's on strange problem: When I try to link an entry to a file
or
a web page, I am not able to press the 'OK' - Button in the menu.
It's clickable, but nothing happens. So I'm not able to do any
connections
to content outside xmind.

I couldn't find anything relating to this topic on the net. Can
anyone help me? Suggestions are highly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance,
Michael

Hello again,

I was able to fix the problem myself. It was a GDK issue. If anyone
has the same problem, this does the trick:

type
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true
in the terminal bevor starting XMind. That's it.

Greetings,
Michael

I am quite new to Ubuntu.

Please tell me how do I,
type
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true

How can I launch a java program such as Xmind using terminal?

Thanks and happy new year in advance.

Hello Nitin,

all you have to do is navigate to the Ubuntu Terminal-Application
(in the taskbar click 'Applications' -> 'Accesoirs' -> 'Terminal').

Enter the path where you have installed XMind (default:
type 'cd /usr/local/xmind' + [ENTER]

Make the XMind-Script executable by typing
(you have to enter your password for this operation)
'sudo chmod +x xmind'

Now enter the following line to solve the button - Problem:
'export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true'

and at least, start xmind by typing
'./xmind'

This works for other applications, too.

Best regards, Michael
