JFC is not displayed correctly but instead is completely garbled

Name: sl110371 Date: 07/13/2000


java version "1.3.0beta_refresh"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.0beta_refresh-b09)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.0beta-b07, mixed mode)


Running included "SimpleExample", although the same results occur with any JFC
application.

Command line: java -jar SimpleExample.jar

Running the above command line first gives me many (10 or 20) of the following
"error":

Font specified in font.properties not found [--symbol-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-
p-*-adobe-fontspecific]

and then displays a garbled window that "changes" when I move the mouse over it.
I have a screenshot of the contents of the window to clarify what I mean, and is
available at:

I am running on a RedHat 6.2, Pentium II 266MHz computer with 96MB RAM and a
Diamond Viper V330 (nVidia Riva 128 chip) video card, using XFree86 3.3.6 at a
resolution of 1152x862x16bit. I have tried the same exercise with GNOME 1.2, KDE
1 and KDE 2 beta, as well as with plain TWM. All results are identical.

Note that the final JDK 1.2.2 displays JFC applications fine; this problem is
new with 1.3.
