Russel, I am not sure if current XOrg is 100% compatible with XFree. As BlackDown's Java3D readme says, XFree 4.1 or later is required http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/jdk1.2-status/README-3D131-i386
You may need a check-list: * Check if your video drivers supports kernel 2.6.x; * Check if your video drivers supports XOrg; * run glxinfo * run glxgears * check Xorg config files * call FC2 support * call ATI Support I saw some NVidia & XOrg how-to's but none about ATI .
