i changed the title of the bug that originated from my weak translation
of the german word "brauchen" that can be translated to "to need" and to
"to take up" depending on the context.

Bug description:
i am on Ubuntu 8.04.1, effect is the same on i386 and amd64, Package: openjdk-6-jre, Version: 6b11-2ubuntu2

Swing UI elements (lists, labels) have additional vertical space, some applets user interfaces are therefore broken with openjdk. In contrast sun-java6-jre works fine with tvbrowser and other applets. I attached a good and a bad png-image. The java program to render the example is ugly but still useable with openjdk but i think the error is shown clearly in comparison of the bad openjdk.png with the good sun sun-java.png.
