Groupwise opens blank window when Desktop Effects enabled

Posted by admin on July 24th, 2008


When you start Groupwise when Desktop Effects enabled then it displays a blank grey window and nothing happens.

To fix or workaround the problem try to edit the groupwise client startup script to be as follows:

/opt/novell/groupwise/client/bin/groupwise.sh -jvm=-Dawt.toolkit=sun.awt.motif.MToolkit

Alternatively, start Groupwise from a Terminal window as follows:

opensuse11:~ # /opt/novell/groupwise/client/bin/groupwise.sh -jvm=-Dawt.toolkit=sun.awt.motif.MToolkit &

This should resolve the problem.
