I believe that I am having similar problems because I'm running on an
X-terminal. (actually it's eXceed for Windows)
I posted an example using GridLayout a few days ago.
It's definitely not just the refresh problem.
This is a bit scary. If awt is exercising some obscure bugs in X servers
it might not be something that Sun could readily fix.
