Thanks Curtis!

Now with your guidance I can run the java DisplayTest
part ( previously I missed the :. in the classpath), 

However I still have errors when running the
ss.SpreadSheet, error being (I think mostly with the
XFree86-DRI as follows, though the icon and cells came
up with the clickable 2D or 3D buttons): 

[root@sbc]#java visad.ss.SpreadSheet
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display
":0.0".
