[IDV #CLJ-965783]: webstart IDV 2.6u2

Hi John,

Don or Jeff can answer this one better, but I feel compelled (:-)
to jump in as your attempt to run IDV with a remote display was
an active area of discussion at the McIDAS Users Group meeting I
attend a couple of weeks back...

I think you will find that the problem _is_ being caused by trying
to run with a remote display.  The MUG person most in the know about
this issue (Dave Parker) noted that running with a remote display
should be possible IF appropriate configurations are made.  He
further noted that he had been unsuccessful in doing this in the
several attempts that he made at SSEC.

Cheers,

Tom
