Hi, I have been using fgfs for a few years and have just downloaded and compiled the new version 1.9.0.
I am using a Debian 64bit distribution Etch (AMD64). I had to fiddle the system bit to get everything to compile. After a lot of head scratching and cussing, I have fgfs binary. But alas, I have some run time errors that prevent the program from initialising. I have compiled the OSG, glutl, openAL, plib and simgear ibraries under /usr/local/lib include and lib64 and find it necessary to: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib64 and then fgfs Specifically the error I get is: Warning: Could not find plugin to read objects from file "/usr/local/share/FlightGear/data/Aircraft/c172p/splash.png". Warning: Could not find plugin to read objects from file "/usr/local/share/FlightGear/data/Aircraft/c172p/Models/interior.png". osgDB ac3d reader: could not read texture "interior.png" ... Segmentation fault The png files are on the system. The error message from osgDB says it could not find a plugin to read the png files. Can you advise which software component is broken (osg?) and how I might troble-shoot the missing plugin? I recieved one bad message from ./configure when compiling OSG. That was: -- ERROR: wxWidgets was not found. configure completed ok and I went on to make without encountering errors. I also failed 1 of the two test when compiling SimGear v1.9 (make check). I gathered this was ok, or expected. Right? Note I know nothing of the software in use here and have rudimentary software compile skills but can use raw logic to work out most things. Do I need some help with the message from osg, or should I look elsewhere? Thanks and regards, Chris. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
