The problems occur when using cvs in local mode. 

I've spent the afternoon setting up pserver and a cvs account. If I use
pserver everything works fine, if a little slower.

I have a version of JBuilder X Foundation. It to shows the same problems
when working with local cvs access. I needed to remove the distributed
version of cvs and soft link to /usr/bin/cvs. The distributed version
suffers from a library mismatch. The cvs interface on JBX works fine using
pserver.

I've not tried the ext access method.

Typical console messages:

/local/apps/JBuilder7SE/bin/cvs -n update -d -P

/local/apps/JBuilder7SE/bin/cvs -q update -p -P -r 1.6 "A_ScrollLeft.java"

I both cases no errors are reported.

I've pasted these into a terminal window and they work as expected. If you
tab to see the repository version of the code you get a blank panel most
times. If I tab back and forth between workspace and repository, after a
few switches, JBuilder will throw a null pointer exception and just hang.

Cheers Steve.
