Hi.

On my system, the same freeze occurs when webots is run as root.

I have tried with the command :
$ sudo ./webots worlds/roboka.wbt

I have mv the java.policy file as java.polycy_old, but the 
same freeze occurs.

If I type java in a terminal, I get the syntax help of the 
command. If I do a make in the controllers/Roboka0 directory, 
a jar file is created whitout any problem.

Bothari..

PS : I run webots whit the world specified on teh comamnd 
line, because loading the roboka world after webots is started 
with another one, causes webots to freeze the same way it 
freze when the simulation is started, or the refresh button 
clicked.
