Well, now this is interesting. These demos crash (log me out of) our
Ultra 10 with Elite 3d graphics, but they seem to run fine on our
Ultra 1 with Creator 3d graphics- they're supposed to run on
both. Could someone please check this out?

(they also seem to run OK on Sparc 5s, though very slowly and with the
expected color map distortion due to 8 bit graphics).

Note that you need to "add -f java_v1.2ref" to get the right "java" on your 
path...

                                    Thanks,

                                                  A.
