Yes, you have to find the proper .dll.
My previous test was on windows 7 with JDK 1.7.0_5. Updated to 1.7.0_11 and the popup issue went away
(both 32 and 64 bit versions).
I also see you guys fixed the Display.setResizable(true) with Display.setParent issue too.
Maybe it is interesting for you, I found another different behaviour compared to 2.8.5. While it is not and was not possible to resize the canvas or display you can force it now. I use a tiny windows-tool that mimics gnome's way to move and resize windows :
http://sourceforge.net/projects/winxmove/. Maybe it's not a big issue, you'll be surprised how many "non-resizeable" windows frames you can resize with it anyway
With 2.8.5 winxmove grabbed the JFrame, now it allows me to drag the display outside the canvas and resize it without getting Display.wasResized() to fire (obviously).
thanks again for the support!
cheers
