Hi friends:
I set the bound of the JFrame by screen size.
On Windows 2000, it works right, but on Linux, the JFrame's window is bigger then screen.
And there is anthor problem about GUI: the confirm dialog's yes,no buttons cann't display
the right string "Yes""No", they appear strange
character.
I have checked the screen size which I got with my code and the setting of my display, they all right.
Who meeted such problem before? Please give me
some advise.
Regards.

Is it Red Hat Linux? You may not have the right font, -- here is more info.
