[Solved] Java makes Openbox to crash

Hello

When I launch any java application, it makes my session to crash back to my login manager (slim).
I'm using openjdk6. Also tried with jre7 from AUR and openjdk7 from testing, but problem persist.
My system is Arch64 up to date with nvidia driver.
Window Manager is Openbox.

Are there any logs about java ?

Thanks.

Solution :

Problem was from my rc.xml.

had to replace this:

  <application title="Vim">
    <maximized>yes</maximized>
  </application>

by:

  <application name="gvim">
    <maximized>yes</maximized>
  </application>

Re: [Solved] Java makes Openbox to crash

The only unusual thing I did recently was:
$ sudo pacman -S base

this replaced dcron with cronie.

Reading my logs I found this in slim.log

How are you gentlemen? All your base are belong to us. (Openbox received signal 11)
XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Ressource temporairement non disponible) on X server ":0.0"
      after 673 requests (673 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
real transparency off.... depth: 24
urxvt: X connection to ':0.0' broken, unable to recover, exiting.

This happened after doing:
$ java -jar some.jar

Seams to be an Openbox issue as I cannot reproduce crash with fluxbox.
