JavaHL Imcompatable with Eclipse 3.7 and Subclipse in Ubuntu 12.04 

Submitted by Mike Jennings on Wed, 05/16/2012 - 10:49

After installing Eclipse 3.7 and Subclipse on my Ubuntu 12.04 I was unable to connect to a subversion repository.  I would get the following error:

Incompatible JavaHL library loaded.  1.7.x or later required.

I followed the instructors on http://subclipse.tigris.org/wiki/JavaHL to fix the issue.  After following there instructions I found that everything was ok and up to date.  The fix was to upgrade my subversion to version 1.7.x or later.  I currently was running on subversion 1.6.17.  The easiest way  to make this to work is add the following package repository to your system and upgrade subversion.

Ubuntu 12.04: How to Disable Mouse Sticking on Middle Dock with Multiple Monitor Support 

Submitted by Mike Jennings on Mon, 05/14/2012 - 03:48

After upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04 I had this annoying issue with multiple monitor support.  When I would drag the mouse from one monitor to the other, the mouse would stick on the Middle Dock for a few seconds before it would pass to the other monitor.  To fix this you can turn off the "Sticky Edges" setting in the Display setting page.

After you set it to off you will need to log out and then log back in for the setting to take effect.

With the help of Steve Swinsburg I have moved the Sakai Spring MVC Archetype v1.0 to the Sakai SVN repository.  The code can now be found here at https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/archetypes/spring-mvc/.  

Steve have also now released version 1.2 of the archetype to the Sakai Maven Repository.  This release provides a much easier method of using the archetype to generate your code.  To generate the Sakai Spring MVC App enter the command below.
