OK, this is bugging me.  I needed to recompile OSG with debugging 
symbols, so I did a pull from SVN first, which apparantly fixed the 
segfault (must've been a bug in OSG).  Now it starts, but strangely my 
system hard locks (frozen mouse, frozen screen) a few minutes after 
starting, which means that this is almost certainly a bug in the Intel 
display drivers.  It looks like I'll have to escalate to the people 
responsible for maintaining those drivers, but honestly, I don't know 
where to begin.  The system hard locks without leaving any trace.  All 
the log files I've checked show nothing from the time of the crash, and 
of course I can't use the debugger to determine what state the program 
was in at the time of the crash.  I'll post a bug on Fedora's bug 
tracker, but if anyone using this list knows what kind of information I 
can provide to them, that would help.  I imagine if I was able to 
reproduce this using the distribution version of OSG, that would help 
(so that I can complain about the presumably simpler calls from FG and 
SG, rather than OSG).  What version of OSG does FlightGear need?  Do we 
really need to be using svn head?

In short, this is going to take some time.

Thanks,
Jeff

Ok, I _think_ most of the relevant stuff is now running properly on the
new machine.  As you might have noticed, the 'commitlogs' notifier
(https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-commitlogs/)
is working again, the GIT daemon is running, the web map is mostly
functional and even the Shapefile download is working again.

Unfortunately, for some yet unknown reason, a large fraction of the
line features are still unavailable on the web map - most notably the
OSM roads - but I'll fix that one as well.

Cheers,
Martin.

Don't know if this helps you, but I had a lockup error when I ran four NVidia 
GTX460 in one system. After some time (a few seconds to many minutes), the X-
system froze but the operating system was still accessible over the network. I 
found this in the event log (dmesg):
irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the irqpoll option)
irq 16 was used by the USB controller and the graphic-cards. Disabling USB in 
the BIOS solved the issue. But because I need USB for the controls, I added
acpi=debug
to the kernel command line arguments. Funny enough, but this completely solved 
the issue, USB and NVidia stopped fighting for the irq.. 
Maybe it's completely unrelated - but it's worth a try.

Hi,

   I'll post a bug on Fedora's bug
 tracker, but if anyone using this list knows what kind of information I
 can provide to them, that would help.

Please have a look at http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki

Specifically TestingAndDebugging/Capturing debugging info without networking

Additionally maybe use the driconf tool last Tab (Errorhandling) and 
report if these settings will make a difference. (disabling direct 
rendering, flushing buffers 

You may try to remove the $(HOME)/.driconf file.

Cheers,

[Flightgear-devel] Fog from METAR in global weather

2010-12-05 Thread Torsten Dreyer
Hi all,

as some of you may have noticed, I'm playing with the METAR generated weather 
(once again). Because it's winter in the part of the world where I am living 
and our winter usually provides endless foggy or misty days, I thought it 
might be a good idea to bring these nasty days straight to your home.
We had reduced visibility in fg before, but that implementation set the 
visibility for the entire atmosphere, from ground level up to the mesosphere. 
Most fog/mist/haze layers I crossed in real life had a sharp upper edge with 
usually good visibility above.
The first lines of code made it into the GIT and when it's all complete it 
should look like the screenshots posted at the forum:
http://flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5t=7358p=104850#p104850

Hope you like it!

Torsten

BTW: This option is configurable and it's off by default, you shouldn't notice 
a change on your system unless you explicitely enable this feature and all the 
remaining parts have been pushed.

Looks absolutely wonderful Torsten, very realistic, fog round here covering the 
South Downs in England is very flat and sharp at the uppermost limit, what a 
great implementation.
