[gentoo-user] Blackdown Java weirdness

2005-06-14 Thread Paul Nolan
I'm having a problem with Java (Blackdown JDK 1.4.2.01). Basically, in GUI 
apps the buttons and tabs are much too tall (around twice what they should 
be), leading to annoying layout problems with widgets disappearing until the 
window is stretched right out.
I'm not sure if this is a Gentoo-specific problem (I've recently switched from 
Debian and Sun JDK 1.5, so it could be a Blackdown problem for all I know), 
but if anyone knows a fix please help.

Thanks, Paul.

It's a problem of Blackdown Java.

See this thread at their ML:

There, I asked about this. Answer:

For me, this worked.
