This is a bug in OpenJDK/swing, not thermostat. OpenJDK is sensitive to which window manager is being used and things break with an unknown window manager [1][2].

You can work around this by:
1. yum install wmname
2. wmname LG3D

awesomewm is now a reparenting window manager. I can not reproduce this bug any more with F19.
