I had success with VisAD and Java 3D Alpha-{1,2}, however, Java 3D Alpha-3 fails. In one case I get SIGSEGV 11* segmentation violation. In another the colors of the surface is way bizarre. I recognize that VisAD is stated to be compatible with Alpha-1. However, I wanted to bring it your attention in case someone else has had success with Alpha-3. Perhaps it's a local problem.
