Comment 1 Gerard Fernandes 2006-11-09 12:08:37 UTC
WORK_AROUND:
Turn off desktop effects. Java GUI applications should now render correctly -
although they donot seem to use the GTK LAF by default.

Comment 2 Adam Jackson 2006-11-20 20:52:26 UTC
This is not our bug.  This is a known issue with Java's window display code,
where it waits for a ReparentNotify before drawing.  Since compiz is not a
reparenting window manager, this notification never comes.

Please file this issue with Sun.
