Well, I guess it must be the X server that you are using.  The XF86_SVGA
and XF86_S3 have no problems with Java.  You can verify that it not a
FreeBSD problem by making a Xwindows session with xwin (the windows 95
xwindows server) on another machine (set the display variable and run
netscape remote).  If it does not display properly on xwin then it most
likely is a setup problem in Netscape.  Xwin worked with Java even when
FreeBSD 2.1 was not able to do it.
