Linux x86_64 Support for GWT 2.2.0

[richip]

Hi,

When will GWT Designer support for GWT 2.2.0 on Linux come out? I noticed that it's giving the Not Supported error message again when I use GWT 2.2.0 but not in 2.1.1.

GWT Designer has always supported GW 2.2.0 under Linux, and we have a very large number of users using that configuration. That said, there is no single thing called "Linux". There are dozens of distros that all claim to be "Linux" and that are all slightly (forward or backward) incompatible with one another.

I am guessing that you might be running into Issue 6029 which involves WebKit rendering on your machine...

There are several suggestions there that should help. You can also give the latest GWT Designer build a try which should work better for older Linux distro or Linux distros with an incompatible WebKit configuration.
