Bug in 0018 and 0017 - Ubuntu

When I try to type anything into the editor I get this exception:

BUG: getTextArea() returning null
Report this to Slava Pestov <sp@gjt.org>

I can't write anything, but most other stuff in the ide seem to work. I can paste stuff into the editor.

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10.

Install the sun-java6-jre package and activate it with

sudo update-alternatives --config java

That was easy enough :slight_smile:

Thanks!
