That sentence catched my eye .. ofc :)
- I assume you use the latest JOGL version ?
- Can you provide qualifying information (FAQ -> Bug Report),
incl. your window manager setup etc ?
- Can you provide a simple test case, so we can reproduce your case
and understand the issue better ?
Until now, both worked pretty well under Linux (mind bug 502 though),
keyboard codes and fullscreen.
Actually Linux/X11 is the 1st dev platform :)
Sorry that you have those issues, please provide above information.
