     50 '''Blank window in non-reparenting window managers''' (i.e. xmonad, awesome)::
     51
     52As mentioned [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.xmonad/1790 here], Java's AWT code is broken when it comes to non-reparenting window managers, and they don't seem to be in a hurry to fix it (given that that's from 2007).  The above mentioned AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit trick works if you're using Sun's (non-free) Java 1.5, but otherwise you'll want to fool java into thinking that your window manager is LG3D, for which they've implemented some sort of fix.

     54For '''xmonad''', you can get it to lie for you [http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Hooks-SetWMName.html thus], as shown [http://github.com/htr/dotfiles/blob/352231b953126cafc234346b9e9a4fe88d500565/xmonad/xmonad.hs here].
