Blank screen with maple 12 on ubuntu if running compiz

Maple 12 will display a blank screen if compiz (Desktop effects) are active.

Quick fix: Disable compiz Real fix, without losing compiz:

Enable partner repositories in sources.lst
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
sudo update-java-alternatives -l
sudo update-java-alternatives -s sun-java6-jre
Edit the maple start file (/opt/maple12/bin/maple on my system). Locate your system type (bin.X86_64 in my case) and change the java jre variable

<code> “bin.X86_64_LINUX”) # -brb-

MAPLE_JRE_BIN="/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/"

# MAPLE_JRE_BIN=“$MAPLE/jre.X86_64_LINUX/bin/” <code>
