I am running Kubuntu 8.10 with KDE 4.1. Some widgets are invisible. NetBeans itself runs fine. I will attach screenshots.

what desktop theme are you using?
also please attach installation log from ~/.nbi/log.
This was a good hint: I am using "Clearlooks" für KDE but the "GTK style" configured in KDE is "Qt4". If I switch to "Clearlooks", "Simple" or "Redmond" for GTK, the widgets are fine. Do you still need the .nbi logs?
> Do you still need the .nbi logs? Yes, please:) BTW, does that happen if you using java5 (or java6 if you initially run on java5)? To run installer on other JDK/JRE specify it with "--javahome <path-to-java>" installer switch.
At you service :-) It works with 1.5. I'll attach two logs, one with 1.5 (working) and one with 1.6 (not working).

kurti, Please put your system into the initial state when you have the issue reproducible ("Clearlooks" für KDE, "GTK style" configured in KDE set to "Qt4"). Could you please run attached kdetest.jar: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.10/jre/bin/java -jar kdetest.jar It will show a button and checkbox on the panel, first - with Metal L&F (for 5 seconds), second - with GTK (for 5 seconds). Could you please make the screenshots with GTK? Is the issue with not visible thing reproducible in this test?
and, please, post the output of "/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.10/jre/bin/java -version" here as well. thanks in advance, Dmitry
Just one more note. The test will actually run 3 times - one with Metal, then Nimbus and GTK at the end. I am interested in GTK screenshots :)
Yes, it is reproducible; I will attach the screenshots.

Thanks! Just for the record : I`ve filed in the internal bugs database against JDK (CR6770565)
*** Issue 159647 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***
JDK bug... Unfortunately I was not able to find a automatic workaround on installer side - closing as wontfix. Manual workaround is to set either different desktop theme or different L&F - by running installer with "--laf Nimbus" (>=jdk6u10) or "--laf Metal".
