Try launching LW using this:

Code:

XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 limewire

Ahah! I think you've nailed it. The XLIB_SKIP... variable didn't help, but I noted that 'compiz' and 'compiz.bin' processes were running. I killed both of them, following which entering 'limewire' at the command prompt started LimeWire Pro working correctly.

(All the window decorations disappeared when I killed Compiz, but they hadn't been working correctly either, even before installing LimeWire.)

The installed Java version is 1.5.0_11. Would the Compiz problem be resolved by updating Java to a later version?

Thanks for your help.
