Any suggestions as to how to get netbeans to look half way decent in Kubuntu 12.04? the best I have so far is: netbeans --laf com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel -J- Dswing.aatext=true -J-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on And it still looks terrible - I think anti aliasing is still turned off -- Lindsay
