Hello to all!
Everything is fine with my new archlinux and I'm amazed of the good work of you guys! I'd like to keep it, but there is a small but important problem as follows:
I installed Java mainly for playing my favourite game called go. From a commandline I open the following:
aoss javaws http://files.gokgs.com/javaBin/cgoban.jnlp
to connect with the kgs go-server. It takes a long time to have java webstart running the application, and it takes a long time to launch the gameserver. Much more time than I experienced on other distros. Ok, then everything seems to be fine, I can watch games and hear sound, but - when I start to play, after a few moves, the gamegui freezes, the connection is cut and I have to start again with the whole thing. It does not happen every time, but approx. 7 of 10 times it does.
I run arch at an older laptop toshiba satellite m30x-134 with 1gb ram and 1,7ghz. I installed java from sun because this was working with aoss so I can listen to music while playing. The probs occur with both java versions, jre from sun and openjdk6, I tried each and removed it before installing the next one.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any hints

I can't think of what would be the problem. You might try using the PKGBUILD from the AUR:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11601
Now, I don't think that will solve your problem. But, I thought I would point it out. It will allow you to manage updates more easily, provide desktop shortcuts, and you will be able to run the client just with "cgoban3".
