FIX JETBRAINS BLANK WINDOW ON LINUX

Posted by Mišo Barišić on September 27, 2021 (2m read)

If you're using a Linux based distribution and have encountered a weird IDE behaviour, i.e. the window being blank starting up, let me show you a quick fix.

Just add this environment variable and set it to 1:

_JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1

NOTE - tested on a minimal Arch system running my build of dwm.
