I still see intermittently on 1.6.0_03-b05 - mostly in dialog (modal) boxes. The sun bug for this is marked as fixed (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6429775), but there are plenty of recent comments suggesting that it's still a problem.
exporting AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit isn't a long term solution, Mtoolkit was replaced by default with XToolkit in java 5, and is likely to be removed at some point.

There is also a thread about the open sun bug here http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=33311.

Hi,

I have a bug 6429775 (Xgl/Compiz/Java 1.5/Swing problem) which I considered fixed (long time ago),
but according to comments on this bug we still have some problems under Compiz :(
I've tried NB 6rc1+jdk6u3 but everything looks ok on my Ubuntu 7.10 :(
So, I wonder if someone on this forum has experienced the problem and if yes, it would be nice
to know how the problem can be reproducible (and in what environment)
