Hello Semyon, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you for this, I've been very busy :( Anyway, I believe this is what you asked me to do, right? http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~neugens/8150954/webrev.03/ The default path is to use X11, if the user sets the system property, gtk is used instead. Btw, I didn't change the code to load the gtk toolkit other than moving it within the if block, but the Toolkit variable could go away since we already have "tk" visible just a few line before, if you want I can make this simple cleanup. Please, let me know if you want other modifications.
