No Keyboard to Dialogs in Netbeans with XMonad
Hi all, Most times pop-up dialogs in Netbeans don't accept any keyboard input but they do respond to mouse input. I have to close and open them several times before a cursor shows up. I used the documented setWMName hack [1] to get around the Java grey screen issue. I am running Netbeans 6.9 and Xmonad 0.9.1. thanks! -deech main = xmonad $ defaultConfig { focusFollowsMouse = False , XMonad.keys = newKeys, layoutHook = showWName mylayoutHook , terminal="gnome-terminal", startupHook = setWMName "LG3D" -- get around Java grey screen issue }

The preferred solution is via _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING, if you are using (a new enough) openjdk. Can you check if that helps? ~d http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Frequently_asked_questions#Problem...
Yes, that seems to work. Thanks!
