Thanks Jeremy, When using Linux with NVidia vcards you can enable AntiAliasing and Anisotropic by setting enviroment variables. In the Appendix E of nvidia's Linux readme.txt - the same file which Jeremy points below - has detailed information about it.
I added the below lines in my .profile file to have my chosen setting options avaliable all the time : #read nvidia readme.txt Appendix E # at http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-4496/README.txt # each vcard model has proper values # for GForce4 Ti I use $export __GL_FSAA_MODE=4 $export __GL_DEFAULT_LOG_ANISO=1 $export __GL_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=1 I am assuming you are using a NVidia vcard with video drivers properly installed under Linux. My experience with Java3D are mainly over NVidia GForce vcards (Win and Linux), so for other brands/models it may works in a different way. I am just sharing what I learn by myself and following tips from this list. See also Florin's post about AntiAliasing and Java3D OpenGL some months ago. There is a lot of info there.
