[scilab-Users] Can't start Scilab in Ubuntu 10.04LTS

[Sylvestre Ledru]

Hello,

Do you know which updates you did recently ?

Are you using Scilab through an ssh connexion ?
What happens if you try 
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/ scilab
or
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/ scilab

Thanks,
Sylvestre
