Thanks for the complement and thanks to you for spending the time on testing things.
I would certainly prefer having to spend a minute writing a response to something like this than not having people actually try it out.

Michael, Where would we be without you! LOL! That was the issue. I upgraded to the 4.2 swt.jar and the errors are all gone.

I remember in a SWT 3.x (I think 3.6, but may be 3.7) there was such a bug with SWT which caused SWT applications to crash when a screen reader was used in a SWT edit box. I thought it had been fixed. If you are using the latest SWT version (may be try a nightly build as well) then may be the bug was reintroduced. If that is so then report it to the Eclipse developers through their bug tracker. Michael Whapples On 08/05/2013 20:52, Vic Beckley wrote:Success! BB now runs under Linux. It doesn't run very long but it doesrun.I get continual memory errors. Here is what I get in the terminal window: ***MEMORY-ERROR***: SWT[2097]: GSlice: assertion failed:sinfo->n_allocated0Aborted (core dumped) I get this error when either of the edit boxes has focus quite often. It happens when I just type in text and also when I have opened a file. Idon'tthink it has happened to me outside of one of the edit boxes. I am not positive of that, though. When the Welcome screen came up, there was no way to focus the welcometext.I only had the checkbox and the two buttons. I could read the welcome text with the flat review cursor. I could navigate the menus fine. Opening a file worked fine. It didn'tsavethe directory I was opening files from on subsequent launches of the open dialog as it does in Windows. Every time it would open to the / directory. Opening files with the Recent Documents feature also worked fine. I am pretty sure translation was being done. Once I got to the Braille window and heard the first line of translated Braille before the program closed itself with the memory error. As far as I can tell, other than this memory error, things look prettygood.Any ideas how to fix this or diagnose further? One thing I did noticeaboutthe errors was that every time I saw the error the number in theSWT[2097]:part of the error was greater than it was the last time. It never was the same. I don't know if that means anything or not. Let me know where to go from here. Best regards from Ohio, Vic
