Description of problem: Eye candy (the tool under user preferences) must be turned off for users who code Java applications using Swing. I'm a student coding Java in Eclipse for Fedora v3.2. When the swing application is run, the window is visible except the contents of the window are NOT visible and renders the application useless. The close, minimize and maximize buttons are still functional but that's where the functionality ends. I turned off the eye candy (thus disabling the desktop cube spin and window 'shake' effects) and swing worked perfectly fine! :D Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I upgraded my java compiler using jdk-1_5_0_09-linux-i586.bin and replaced the default compiler in Eclipse (1.4.2...). I'm using Fedora Core 6. How reproducible: Very! Steps to Reproduce: 1. Write swing application in java 2. Test with eye candy off 3. Test with eye candy on Actual results: Expected results: Swing programs should work with new 'eye candy' Additional info:
We can't support Sun's Java on Fedora yet. Closing WONTFIX.
