Next problem - java appears to use DirectDraw? It wipes out the screen contents in the same way QuickTime did when using DirectDraw, which obviously gets in the way of working with the app :)
Yes. Swing uses DirectDraw. But you can disable direct draw usage with the -Dsun.java2d.noddraw option. (That is running program with 'java -Dsun.java2d.noddraw main.Class' )
I had to use this option when I had a S3 Virge DX (graphic card), since it had glitches with ddraw.
