Re: Problems with Java Swing Applications

Ratpoison's FAQ answers your question:

I only get blank windows when running some Java GUI programs

    "wmname LG3D" solves problem in sun jdk6. Tool is available here:
http://tools.suckless.org/wmname.
    also JVM/JRE 7+ seems not to have this problem
    see http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do;jsessionid=44019c71215e20142b35729ddd054?bug_id=6574362
