Java3d runs very nicely on Linux.

  I highly reccomend it.

  And Java3d runs in Mozilla on Linux ( and windows ).

  Linux and the other Unixes were MADE for
  software developers and it's a nice
  environment, I use Sun's free Forte IDE.

| 14. Why does J3D crash with XWindows on Linux Red Hat 7.1?
|
| Firstly, read the README that comes with
| the blackdown port of Java3D as the answer is there.
| That's why the provide it.
|
| You've read it haven't you ?.

| If you still haven't read it,

  OR ... this is what I do, in my .bash_profile file:

---- extract file: .bash_profile  ( Red Hat Linux 7.2 ) ---

#-- Java3d, stops Java3d exit from crashing X Shell.

J3D_USE_SHARED_CONTEXT=FALSE
export J3D_USE_SHARED_CONTEXT

JMFHOME=/home/paul/Java/Jmf/jmf-2.1.1
CLASSPATH=$JMFHOME/lib/jmf.jar:.:${CLASSPATH}

export JMFHOME
export CLASSPATH

---- end extract ---
