Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
I recently downloaded VisAd and all the necessary parts. The JDK 1.2 went in with no problem. After OpenGL 1.1.1 was installed on our Solaris (sunos 5.6) machines, Java3d was installed. After all that the VisAd package was installed and compiled along with it's two demo's. So far, there is one major problem that has been discovered: Even though the widgets and other elements all display fine, the display windows come up black and white (not even gray scale, just black and white). After finding this, I went and ran some Java3d demos only to find the same thing. This is true for both demos. I poked around the JDC site but found no mention of this problem. Everything seems right, Solaris version, jdk version, java3d, etc. Any suggestions on what to check? Thanks, Brandon Hill Virtual Environments Lab Center for Coastal Physical Oceanography
