Is there any chance this is a DirectX 8.0 bug? (since you report it only
occurs with the DirectX version of Java 3D) We've seen a few
applications (none with Java 3D) (Madden 2001, Wizards and Warriors,
Everquest) that have started acting strange on one of our testbed
machines where I was testing DirectX 8.0.  As of the moment we consider
DirectX 8.0 "defective". (it is possible it is only a problem with the
combination of DirectX 8.0 and the NVidia Detonator 2 drivers since that
is the only video card I've tried DirectX 8.0 on)
