                Yes, please file bugs. Please also attach the versions of 
cairo, gtk+,  
                glib, pango from Om2007.2 and Om2008.8.
                
                Did you try to use a different theme engine? Is that changing 
the  
                performance?

Hi, Holger, all

Joseph and I are collaborating to get this Java GIS application to run on 
Openmoko. We regularly update/upgrade from:

http://downloads.openmoko.org/daily/testing/ 
<http://downloads.openmoko.org/daily/testing/> 

We are currently using the java.awt package for the GUI and are having a few 
issues than we didn't see with Om 2007.2.

We are drawing our map on a java.awt.Panel which is something we cannot change 
easily, but I think we can replace the other controls (buttons, dialogs, 
labels, etc.) with the Eclipse swt widgets and keep this awt panel for the map 
(embedded). Also we are going to test JamVM instead of cacao. We'll let you 
know how it goes.

Cheers,
Juan
