Managed to reinstall everything but the missing section of the screen is even bigger now.

Interestingly if I click on the screen where the chat box should be and type it works. You just cannot see what you are typing! Hover over works for seeing how many TRR you have as well.

Have tried using CCSM "Window Rules" to force window resize but that does not seem to be working.

Hi there, I wrote a blog post detailing what I did to get the FFB client to run again on Linux Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04, without the white bar. I did not use the software from java.com, instead using openJDK 8 or 11 and icedtea. Link to blog post https://gsverhoeven.github.io/post/ffb_client_java_linux/

Update: it is actually even simpler. It seems that OpenJDK 11 has switched from looking at GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID to looking at XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP as well. On Ubuntu 18.04LTS, I have to unset both, and after that, the FFB client is working properly without the white bar, with JRE 11.0.13. I've updated the blog post.

gertjan:~/Downloads$ unset -v GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID
gertjan:~/Downloads$ unset -v XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP
gertjan:~/Downloads$ javaws ffblive.jnlp
