Initially, I used XFree86-4.0 (using a 3DFX Voodoo3500 AGP/TV card) and lesstiff. I was surprised to have horrible repaint problems with JBuilder3. With the Linux version, things would only repaint under the mouse or if a window was moved over them, and the native version was only slightly better. (Repaints seem to be JFC pixel based, rather than awt peer based) I had tried similar steps earlier with FreeBSD-4.0-(7/8 Snap) and had much better success - with a small redraw problem on the file menu in the Linux JDK/Native no-jit, and a popup data dictionary window not showing right with native and tya-jit. Back to FreeBSD-3.5, I make deinstall XFree86-4.0, then installed XFree86-3.x from the packages and tried again. XFree86-3x was noticeably better at repainting than XFree86-4x but still bad enough to be unusable. Any opinions on other things I could check that may be of use to know? I am using just a generic kernel. I know others have reported success with JBuilder and FreeBSD3.5 I plan to try FreeBSD with my older G200 video card as well as trying it on Linux.
