ClassCastException and BufferStrategy

I just want to draw a black window! (sob.)

I was messing around with kevglass' space invaders tutorial, but couldn't get anything to draw to the window, due to the following exception:

1

8

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException

I'm new to this, so I wouldn't be surprised if it were due to some silly oversight on my part. Any suggestions, corrections or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. I tried to simplify as much as possible for troubleshooting purposes. Here's the code:

public class Game extends Canvas {

      private boolean gameRunning = true;

      public Game() {
            JFrame container = new JFrame("Black Rectangle");
            JPanel panel = (JPanel) container.getContentPane();
            panel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(800,600));
            panel.setLayout(null);
            
            setBounds(0,0,800,600);
            panel.add(this);
            
            setIgnoreRepaint(true);
            
            container.pack();
            container.setResizable(false);
            container.setVisible(true); 
            requestFocus();
            
            createBufferStrategy(2);
            BufferStrategy strategy = getBufferStrategy();
      
            while (gameRunning) {
                  
                  Graphics2D g = (Graphics2D) strategy.getDrawGraphics();
                  g.setColor(Color.black);
                  g.fillRect(0,0,800,600);
            
                  g.dispose();
                  strategy.show();
                  
                  try { Thread.sleep(10); } catch (Exception e) {}
            }
      }

      public static void main(String args[]) {
            new Game();
      }
      
}

I mean, this should work, right?

I'm running Mac OS X 10.3.8 with Java 1.42 and an nVidia GeForce FX 5200 video card.
