Synth L&F Not Working on Fedora

My primary dev environment is Fedora 6 and I have been playing around with Synth (specifically, re-skinning). While I can get it to work in Windows, it never works on Fedora. Instead, all of the elements just don't show up. If I don't change the L&F to use Synth (loading the config from XML) it all shows up fine. But as soon as I try to load Synth, I get a blank JFrame.

Even the example from IBM (http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-synth/) works only on Windows.

Any ideas?
