 Christian,
 
  Do you get the proper LAF if you pass this argument on the Java

  -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel
 
 That did the trick, thanks! Do you know why I do not have to add this
 when running Gnome? 

I guess this has to come from environmental variables. JRE has to read 
them and use it when you launch the virtual machine.

 Is there a way to set it at login so I do not have to for every Java
 application I launch?

Mmm, maybe you can edit you ~/.bashrc and export the required values 
from there (e.g., export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-
Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel'). I have to 
tested this, not sure if it is a valid setting, use with caution ;-)

Getting java applications to look like GTK

2012-01-23 Thread Christian Dysthe
Hi,

When I run Gnome Java applications looks like the rest of my GTK based 
applications. However, when I'm running another DE (Pekwm/tint2) Java 
applications do not look like my other GTK applications. How can I get 
Java applications too look like my other applications when not using 
Gnome? I use Gtk-ChTheme to see the GTK theme when not in Gnome, but it
doesn't affect  the look of Java applications.
