Hi!
I have started to test OpenSCAD on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala with kernel 2.6.31-16-generic and I am having some problems with it. I installed it using the instructions in the OpenSCAD manual and after a little problem that was fixed by Clifford everything went ok. After installing I tried the first example from the OpenSCAD manual and the OpenSCAD just closed itself when I press F5 or click the Compile option in the menu. However, if I click F6, it doesn't close and the figure is shown. I have also noticed that when I choose OpenCSG under the View menu after I press F6 the program closes itself too.

(the tool "glxinfo" should print out all relevant information and much more) 2. run openscad from a terminal window. is there any output printed to the terminal? if so - what is it? 3. run openscad using strace: just install 'strace' and the run it using "strace -o output_file_name full_path_to_openscad_bin", let it crash by pressing F5 and post the generated file. this files tend to be rather huge. so maybe you could put it somewhere online (e.g. pastebin.com) and just post the link? 4. run openscad in gdb and create a stack backtrace: just install 'gdb' and run it using "gdb full_path_to_openscad_bin" and then type "run". Let it crash by pressing F5 and then type "bt" on the gdb prompt. post the output. OpenSCAD should work with all OpenGL 2.0 cards and hardware. It detects on startup if your setup provides OpenGL 2.0 support and automatically disables the advanced OpenGL stuff when there is no proper hardware/driver support. It is possible that this features will never work with your hardware. In this case a "bugfix" would only do better checking of the needed GL support and result in properly disabling some features.. yours, - clifford -- perl -le '$_=1;(1x$_)!~/^(11+)\1+$/&&print${_}while$_++<1000'|fmt |
Hi,
I have made everything you said and the four files can be downloaded from: http://www.sendspace.com/file/jqa5jc I just hope to have made them correctly. If you need any other information just request it and I'll be glad to send it as soon as I can. By the way, the graphics card is an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD. I've googled about it and OpenGL 2.0 and I found that ir supports OpenGL 2.0. However, I don't know if the linux driver that I'm using supports it. Thank you in advance, Regards, Mário Saleiro Sáb, 2009-12-26 às 10:54 +0100, Clifford Wolf escreveu: > Hi, > > On Sat, Dec 26, 2009 at 03:56:01AM +0000, Mario Alexandre Nobre Saleiro wrote: > > I have started to test OpenSCAD on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala with kernel > > 2.6.31-16-generic and I am having some problems with it.
