<div dir="ltr">Subject: Java AWT BorderLayout() seems to crash libGLX_mesa.so.0 in Ubuntu Linux ver 18.04.1 Hi All, I have a large Java application that includes many commands such as new JPanel(new BorderLayout()) this.setLayout(new BorderLayout()); but not all of them seem to cause the crashing. I can prevent crashing by removing "new BorderLayout()" in some places. I am moving this Java application that works on MS-Windows to Ubuntu and this is a big show-stopping problem, preventing needed panes from being displayed in the GUI. I'm running Ubuntu in a VirtualBox on a Windows 10 PC. I am using NetBeans 8.2 and Java 8. Here is some of the output pane output: # A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: # # SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007f3918aba440, pid=2616, tid=0x00007f38ba2aa700 # # JRE version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (8.0_212-b10) (build 1.8.0_212-b10) # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (25.212-b10 mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops) # Problematic frame: # C [libGLX_mesa.so.0+0x45440] My version of libGLX_mesa.so comes from here: libglx-mesa0_19.0.8-0ubuntu0~18.04.2_amd64.deb I also tried libglx-mesa0_19.0.8-0ubuntu0~18.04.1_amd64.deb libglx-mesa0_18.0.0~rc5-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb libglx-mesa0_18.2.8-0ubuntu0~18.04.2_amd64.deb libglx-mesa0_18.2.8-0ubuntu0~18.10.2_amd64.deb Here are the imports in one of the source code files that I am working with: import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.Color; import java.awt.Font; import javax.swing.BorderFactory; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax.swing.JSplitPane; import javax.swing.JTabbedPane; import javax.swing.border.CompoundBorder; import javax.swing.border.EmptyBorder; import javax.swing.border.LineBorder; import javax.swing.event.ChangeEvent; import javax.swing.event.ChangeListener; import javax.swing.plaf.FontUIResource; import shooter.controller.MsgHandler; Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help. Doing: glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version" I get: OpenGL version string: 3.1 Mesa 18.2.8 I also asked this question here: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58867085/java-awt-borderlayout-seems-to-crash-libglx-mesa-so-0-in-ubuntu-linux-ver-18-0">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58867085/java-awt-borderlayout-seems-to-crash-libglx-mesa-so-0-in-ubuntu-linux-ver-18-0</a> and here: <a href="https://askubuntu.com/questions/1189072/java-awt-borderlayout-can-crash-libglx-mesa-so-0-in-ubuntu-linux-ver-18-04-1">https://askubuntu.com/questions/1189072/java-awt-borderlayout-can-crash-libglx-mesa-so-0-in-ubuntu-linux-ver-18-04-1</a> <div> </div><div>Best regards,</div><div>-Jim</div><div> </div></div>
