It looks like the java being used is the default that comes with Linux which
is a GNU version of Java.  The installer will not work with this version of
java.

Where did you install java3d?  From the listing above, the java you
are trying to run is in /usr/java/jre1.5.0_05.  Is this the GNU java or
did you install the jre also?  Since the listing above shows
"j3d.version:none", it means that Java 3D is not installed in the same
place as the version of java you are running.  Thus, you get the error
below.  See the FAQ item on this at:

> Any ideas?

Is there a reason you are not using the linux specific installer with java 
instead
of just the java installer?  If not, I suggest using the linux installer which 
has
Java and Java 3D contained in it.
