I'm not sure that upgrading from Java 1.5 to Java 1.6 would solve your problem. Drag & Drop works fine on Linux with any Java[tm] runtime starting from version 1.5 (like sun-java5-jre). I mean: it didn't work with Java 1.4 because this *ancient* version implemented the Motif DnD protocol. But as of version 1.5, Java implements the XDnD protocol which is used by all Gnome and KDE applications.
