This indicates that the IDV couldn't find Java 3D on your system.  It
looks like you are not using the version of Java that came with the
IDV.  You can either:

- re-run the IDV InstallAnywhere installer and install the version
of Java that is packaged with it (which includes Java 3D)
- install Java 3D yourself (use 1.3.1 for Linux unless you X server
supports GLX 1.3) into your /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_10/jre directory.

Please see the IDV FAQ at:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/docs/userguide/Faq.html

under the Potential Problems section for more information on this
and other potential errors.
