This problem existed in the old implementation of kappletwidget.cpp
code.
The only workaround I found was to put a 1 second delay before embedding 
the Java window. It gave the Java a possibility to initialize it windows 
correctly and cured the problem.

I don't really know why does it happen.

When kappetwidget embedding code was rewritten, the delay was removed
and 
it looks like the problem is still there.

For whatever reason it happens only for Java 1.1 implementations.

Hope it helps,
Dima.

Rich.
