bug best summed up at this link from mathworks.

http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/data/32532.shtml

Tested in rhl9 - matlab works fine under kwin and twm, makes the windows
too small under metacity.

grumble Java grumble

I don't have enough information here to determine what's going wrong.
I either need a detailed technical explanation of the WM hints
involved (what is done differently for the different WMs), or I need a
 Java app that I can run that shows the problem.

I'll look around jpackage.org and ask some of those folks for
suggested applications which screw this up.
Comment 3 Rob Adams 2003-10-07 02:36:13 UTC 
this is ought to be fixed in CVS and will be in the upcoming Gnome
2.4.1 release shortly after Oct 13 or thereabouts.
