Description sradhakrishna 2007-04-25 04:18:30 UTC 
Hi,

Am using Ubuntu 7.04 and I have JRE 5.0 Netbeans installed. I also installed the
Netbeans' C++ pack, Mobility pack and the UML pack. 

However, when I launch the Netbeans IDE, I get a window that is entirely blank
and white - I do not see any controls on the IDE. But when I move the mouse over
the (visibly) blank window, the pointer gets changed indicating that there's a
link or a selection control at that point.

Any idea how to get this issue resolved??

Please do let me know.

Regards,
Radha.

This is duplicate of issue 86253 (problems with  Xgl/Aiglx/Compiz)

Look at that issue, there some hints and probably it will work for you as well:

1. removed 2 lines from file 'netbeans-5.0/platform6/lib/nbexec'. 
 J2D_PIXMAPS=shared
 export J2D_PIXMAPS

2. AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit in the environment fixes this

3. see issue 86253 for more informations about needed libraries
