Re: whats the word on minecraft. how well does it work on li
Personal experience here says it runs pretty much the same as on Windows. I think that's because it's a Java application, and so, provided Java is implemented properly on the platform, it should run it. That being said, there still seem to be a few bugs that have crept in. Using both Java and openJava, one of my keys will occasionally get stuck on, especially after clicking with the mouse, resulting in me walking to the left, or jumping constantly. ESC fixes it, but it's evidence that there's still a few annoyances to iron out. I have no advice on the drivers. I have something in the 3870 family, and the third-party drivers seem to be fine. I'm sure even the kernel drivers would have worked, if I hadn't been in such a rush to get dual-screen working.
