you need icedtea for easy mode =)
step 1)
create a little script in /some/where/
in my case /home/me/bin/javaws
i named javaws
#!/bin/bash
unset -v GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID
javaws "$@"
sudo chmod 755 javaws
step 2)
cd /usr/share/applications
sudo nano icedtea-netx-javaws.desktop
##edit Exec= line with###
Exec=/home/me/bin/javaws %u
save
and enjoy =)
run in ubuntu 20.04 |

I know I should know what ubuntuu is but I've had way to much to drink and it reminded me of my coding days where I could name classes after historical classic heros so long as the name had'nt been taken by anyone else working on the game.
I was Java script tester and not a very good one either.
But I wasn't at university to study at that stage of my life. |

Sorry does not work for me - when I am about to start the game I get a little status bar at the bottom that looks like a taskbar and includes a start game "button" for a the pop-up window.
Any ideas Ubuntu 21.10 gnome 40 icedtea-netx 1.8.4
thanks |

I tried the fix on 20.04 version again and that worked, so its something to do with either gnome 40 and/or wayland |
