I tried to install idv2.0 via webstart on Linux, FC3 and FC5. In both cases, the viewer screens remains blank. When using the IDV-installer, idv runs without problems.

What version of Java is WebStart using?  You can find out
by using following link which will bring up the
Web Start Manager:

http://java.sun.com/products/javawebstart/apps/player.jnlp

Use the Edit->Preferences menu to bring up the
Preferences manager and click on the Java tab.  Depending
on the version of Web Start, you will see a list of
the Java versions that Web Start is trying to use, or
you'll need to click on the View button under
Java Application Runtime Settings (in 1.5) to bring
up the list.

Also, if you are running Java Webstart from Java 1.5, you
could find the Java 3D Optional Package in the Cache Viewer
and delete that and try again.
