Hi Stu-
You might try the 1.3.1 version of Java 3D for Solaris. You can
download it at:
https://java3d.dev.java.net/binary-builds-old.html
The problem with Xvfb is that it needs to support the version of GLX
that Java 3D does.

Matt,
I just wanted to provide some information to everyone on this list
about our experiences w/getting IDV installed on our (headless)
systems since Evan (Lowery) and myself have been doing a good deal of
posting about the issues we have been coming across.
So far our preliminary tests indicate that we were successfully able
to install IDV 2.8u1 on our PE2970 w/32bit CentOS 5.4 - using the
(full) IDV installer - but only when we chose v1.3 (compatibility mode
option) of Java 3d; using v1.5 would result in fatal errors when
trying to create images using ISL files.
Yes, in my case as well it only worked with the Java3D version 1.3.
I used Xvfb 4.8; did you use Xvfb 4.1 successfully on the 32 bit Centos
version 5.4?
Does anyone have any idea how to run the IDV in background on Solaris?
No luck here finding an Xvfb that works.
