Hi, I have the very same problem with some Java programs (FreeMind, jDownloader, for example); I can't even run muCommander which gives me a totally gray window. The Java work-around on Awesome wiki didn't help. Changing from Sun/Oracle JDK to IBM JDK or Open JDK didn't work, either. Please correct me if I'm wrong, I notice that the problem only happens with Swing programs, not SWT ones (like Vuze and Eclipse). I'm running Gentoo x86_64 (same as Basti) with: | $ awesome -v | awesome v3.4.8 (Never Know) | • Build: Feb 4 2011 12:30:09 for x86_64 by gcc version 4.4.4 (@tim) | • D-Bus support: ✔ | | $ java-config -L | The following VMs are available for generation-2: | 1) IBM JDK 1.6.0.8_p1 [ibm-jdk-bin-1.6] | 2) IcedTea6-bin 1.9.4 [icedtea6-bin] | *) Sun JDK 1.6.0.22 [sun-jdk-1.6] <- marked Best regards, -- Dương "Yang" Hà Nguyễn Web log: http://cmpitg.wordpress.com/ "Life is a hack" -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GIT/C/ED/L d++ s-:-(:) !a C+++(++++) ULU++++>$ P-- L+++>$ E+++ W++>+++ N+ o+ K w--- O- M@ V- PS+ PE++ Y+>++ PGP++ t+ 5 X+ R- tv+ b+++ DI+++ D++ G+++ e* h* r* y- -----END GEEK CODE BLOCK-----
