[IDV #FRK-322354]: crash on start up

Hi Stu-

We used to have separate installers for the different versions of Java 3D.  
Now, the old 32-bit Java 3D is available as an option in the 32-bit Linux 
installer.  There is no 64-bit version and even the 32-bit version may have 
library problems on newer systems.  To install the old version of Java 3D, run 
the Linux 32-bit installer and when it asks about Java 3D, select the 
compatibility mode.
