Hi all,
I'm having a bit of strangeness with all forms of the launcher (desktop and panel) when it comes to java programs. I add for example IntelliJ Idea from the whisker menu to a panel and it has the following command:
"/home/dave/local/idea-IC-143.381.42/bin/idea.sh" %f
I can take this command and execute it in a terminal and it works fine. But when I press the launcher button a window never shows up. I can see a process that is running that does hog some resources.
I did the same thing with SQLWorkbench (with a manually created) desktop launcher with the following as the command:
/home/dave/local/sqlworkbench/sqlworkbench.sh
In this case when I start it an upstart process starts that hogs around 99% CPU.
All other launchers are working. I'm pretty sure the above were working too but am not 100% sure (as the install is less than a month old).
I'm on 15.10 and installed all updates (including some prompted ones today).
Any one having similar experiences?
Regards,
Dave
