The demo applet for demo/applets/GraphLayout/example1.html has two buttons.
One of these is labeled Scramble and the other is labeled Shake. The label
for the "Shake" button is not visible on x86 machines. The visibility is
fine on sparc. The importance of the bug is that something might be wrong
in the AWT and it's interface with x86/Solaris 2.6 Motif.

The demo runs properly with the JDK from Solaris Product Group. It's not a problem
in the demo itself. Given that the problem is as basic as the labeling of a an
AWT button and that the demo is much smaller than the bug report JavaSoft is going
to get from the field, this bug may deserve more than priority 5 attention.

This is caused by an X server problem on x86 Solaris 2.6. There is now a bug filed about that: 4184869, so I am closing this one as a duplicate.
