Hi,

I am attempting to use a Java application (on a linux host) remotely (with X11), and I'm running into problems. The default XToolkit for AWT/Swing seems to have problems with menu alignment (such as reported here: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) - Cursor click in Netbeans menu pops up wrong menu item).

The "quick" solution was to switch back to using the older MToolkit for AWT, by setting AWT_TOOLKIT=sun.awt.motif.MToolkit ... however this comes with it's own set of problems, namely, after a dialog message pops up, keyboard focus is messed up. The caret seems to work properly in however keyboard events aren't generated/received. According to this: Bug ID: 6465038 On MToolkit, cannot input any character on multi window environment it seems to have been fixed (a while back) but I am still having this same symptoms even with JRE 1.6.0_20.

Anyone running into the same problems, and, better yet, have a fix/solution?
