you need icedtea for easy mode =)

step 1)

create a little script in /some/where/
in my case /home/me/bin/javaws

i named javaws

#!/bin/bash
unset -v GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID
javaws "$@"

sudo chmod 755 javaws


step 2)

cd /usr/share/applications
sudo nano icedtea-netx-javaws.desktop

##edit Exec= line with###
Exec=/home/me/bin/javaws %u

save

and enjoy =)

run in ubuntu 20.04

I know I should know what ubuntuu is but I've had way to much to drink and it reminded me of my coding days where I could name classes after historical classic heros so long as the name had'nt been taken by anyone else working on the game.

I was Java script tester and not a very good one either.

But I wasn't at university to study at that stage of my life.

Sorry does not work for me - when I am about to start the game I get a little status bar at the bottom that looks like a taskbar and includes a start game "button" for a the pop-up window.

Any ideas Ubuntu 21.10 gnome 40 icedtea-netx 1.8.4

thanks

I tried the fix on 20.04 version again and that worked, so its something to do with either gnome 40 and/or wayland
