This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Under the Maximus WM, used by e.g. Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Edition, the Swing UI of NetBeans doesn't render, or doesn't render when maximised. This might be a Swing bug, since it is known to do the same thing under Compiz. Might be outside NetBeans's scope to fix this, but it might be nice to document this issue.
