Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ia32-sun-java6-bin
If you use Beryl instead of Metacity, Swing apps do not draw. They are solid white. It was reported to Sun with Compiz and they claim it's fixed, but it's not. When running a Java app from CLI, the fix is to have the line: export AWT_Toolkit=MToolkit in your .bashrc. I don't know what to do if you're not running from the CLI (haven't tried as I have no apps that run any other way). The problem is an upstream Sun bug which Sun claims was fixed. Maybe their fix didn't make it into Ubuntu, but I have the problem with Java 5 and Java 6. ** Affects: sun-java (upstream) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Affects: sun-java6 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Also affects: sun-java (upstream) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Beryl + Java Swing does not draw https://launchpad.net/bugs/87665 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
