What fvwm2 often does with these is it resizes them so that they are so small on the screen that the user can hardly see them. Even when the user calls setSize(x, y) and pack() on the created JFrame fvwm2 often still does the resizing leading to 16x16 windows or so. This happens roughly 60% of the time. This also happens under the gnome window manager but never happens under window maker. The code was compiled using Sun's JDK for Linux and other users experienced the same problem with their own code. The other Java problem which has to do with window management is that when setVisible(true) is called on the window often it appears as an fvwm2 icon, which is not what is supposed to happen. When setVisible(false) is called on a JDK JFrame the window is supposed to disappear and when setVisible(true) is called on that window later it is supposed to appear deiconified.
