Linux installer text fields are non editable in X11 window

Hi All,

I am trying to create a Linux installer and the installer will contain some text fields and buttons (using java custom code panel). I am using "Xming-6-9-0-31-setup.exe" and "putty" for X11 GUI. When i execute the "install.bin" from the putty session i can able to see the GUI dialogue but the text fields in the dialogue are non editable. Please help me how can i get the correct output.

Thanks in Advance

Which JRE are you using?
For 1.7, you need at least the 7u40.

If you're not using embeded JRE with your installer, then you need "1.7.0_40" installed on your Linux.

I do not know if the problem is fixed in JRE1.6 but you can check by following links I posted above
