Comment 1 Jiri Prox 2008-02-14 12:45:31 UTC 
The main menu submenus did not work as well. 
Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it now after restarting IDE
Comment 2 mslama 2008-02-14 13:24:33 UTC 
I saw it 2 times. IDE restart helps. Still I do not know how to reproduce what causes this behavior. Once it happened
after I disabled/enabled desktop effects but when I tried again it did not occur.
Comment 3 mslama 2008-03-03 13:20:18 UTC 
So far no steps to reproduce. It was seen. Minor issue. IDE restart fixes and workaround exists: Use arrow key to expand
submenu.
Comment 4 ixmal 2008-03-03 16:38:52 UTC 
This looks like a problem with grab: all the mouse events are grabbed and by some unknown reason are not dispatched to
the proper component (popup menu). If the problem is only reproducible with heavyweight popups, there may be some bugs
with window insets.

In any case, steps to reproduce are required.

I tested with NB 6.1 packages and Open JDK:
java version "1.6.0_0"
IcedTea6 1.3.1 (6b12-0ubuntu6.4) Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_0-b12)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 1.6.0_0-b12, mixed mode, sharing)

  Product Version         = NetBeans IDE 6.1 (Build 080905)
  Operating System        = Linux version 2.6.27-14-generic running on i386
  Java; VM; Vendor        = 1.6.0_0; OpenJDK Client VM 1.6.0_0-b12; Sun Microsystems Inc.
  Runtime                 = IcedTea6 1.3.1 (6b12-0ubuntu6.4) Runtime Environment 1.6.0_0-b12
  Java Home               = /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre
  System Locale; Encoding = en_US (nb); UTF-8

Reporter please could you verify? I will also ask for testing on Jaunty or I will test myself once I upgrade.
