I assume you're running your app with JDK 5? Swing's GTK L&F was rather simplistic in the JDK 5 release and did not support all possible GTK engines, particularly the new Nimbus theme. In JDK 6, the GTK L&F was rewritten so that it can support many more GTK engines, and as such Nimbus is now supported. Try running with JDK 6 instead (I don't have a snv build handy at the moment, but I think there should be a recent build of JDK 6 installed by default). Thanks, Chris
