(Get the code!)
I was trying to troubleshoot a freezing Java applet for a friend, so I started Firefox from the terminal. After the Java applet froze, I looked in the terminal and found a stream of the "...trouble ahead" messages.
I've been able to consistently reproduce this on two systems now, so maybe it is a usable test case. The only caveat is you need to have a TD Ameritrade account (which I don't).
Anyway, here's what I did:
1) I am using sun-java6 NOT openjdk/icedtea.
2) Open the TD Ameritrade Command Center.
3) Once the streamer has loaded, click on the settings button (looks like a wrench) to open the streamer settings. The settings window begins to appear, but is only partially drawn (no text), then it freezes up so badly that the system monitor cannot kill the task. Other applications can be used and closed, but the Java app will just sit there frozen until the system is rebooted.
This doesn't happen using Karmic, only Lucid. I have tested it on two systems, both using an Intel graphics chipset (I don't know if that matters). The next time I am over at my friend's place, I will try to get more information so I can create a proper bug report.
