+Java applications which use the XToolkit/XAWT backend may draw grey windows
+only. The XToolkit/XAWT backend breaks ICCCM-compliance in recent JDK 1.5 and early
+JDK 1.6 versions, because it assumes a reparenting window manager. As a workaround
+you can use JDK 1.4 (which doesn't contain the XToolkit/XAWT backend) or you
+can set the following environment variable (to use the older Motif
+backend instead):
