Description
The regression test for 6694823 test/javax/swing/JPopupMenu/6694823/bug6694823.java fails on Linux with Gnome window manager. It turned out that Gnome doesn't allow to place windows(=popups) over the task bar. Some other window managers can work in the same way. A solution can be to release the popup window from the window manager control and to handle it manually. It can be achieved with the usage of ###overrideRedirect### AWT window hint.
