Zoran,

I am running
- SuSe 7.3 Linux
- JDK 1.3.1
- Java 3D 1.2.1_01
- ASUS V8200 nVidia GeForce3 Ti 500

i noticed no J3D specific problems running without the nVidia drivers which
are not part of SuSe's distribution.

after installing nVidia drivers samples ran ok, but when i started my
application, which uses multiple views, it crashed. the fix was to start my
J3D app with
        -Dj3d.sharedctx=false

as you might know, the Linux ports of J3D are released some time behind the
windows and solaris versions, because they are done by blackdown.org.

IDE:

JBuilder is ok.
IntelliJ IDEA is perfect.
the others i don't know.
