Download and install under Fedora 15 KDE worked fine, but

1. I can create new projects and then everything works as expected.
   I can create nodes, connect them etc. All nodes are working
   fine.
2. Closing Compendium and starting it takes me to the open project
   dialogue. I select the project I created in 1) and then nothing
   more happens. Most of the menu items are greyed out, except for
   File|open and File|new and File|Manage projects - from the
   latter I am able to change the name of the project, and the new
   name is reflected in the Open dialogue, but it does not open.

The log file does not say anything except correctly identifying that no MySQL
is running on the local machine.

I have found a strange work around for this. If you define a project as Default
it will be automatically opened at start up, and you can work with it as
normal. This is good enough for me for the moment, but it would be nice to have
the possibility to create different projects and open them again.

Solution found: This has to do with the Java version under Fedora. As the
starting script just say "Java" it starts the version that is bundled with
Fedora. Installing Oracle's original Java and giving the full path to this in
the start up script solved the issue (like
/usr/local/java/jre6.0_29/bin/Java).

This solution is similar to the one found by Sglan and reported in Comment 8 of

This issue is actually similar to #29. I mark this as duplicate and close.
