Hi;
Thank you for your reply! I have a NVIDIA graphic card on my laptop but the Linux is running on a virtual machine. Maybe the VMPlayer does not support my graphic card and so, the Linux system does not see any?!? I'll try to investigate in that direction.
Thank you again for your quick reply.
Have a nice week-end,
Christophe

hi,
yes.. my colleague had the same problem
our observation was that... the crashes occur on machines which do not have a dedicated graphics card
I had an nvidia graphics card and it never crashed on my computer.....
the effect occurs irrespective of whether the computer is a desktop or a laptop
and occurs only in linux... the crashes do not take place in windows......

actually similar behavior was seen with paraview...... (crash on linux with no dedicated graphics, no crash on windows, no crash on linux with dedicated graphics)
which led us to suspect that it might be an OpenGL problem
but again I'm not sure..

but we did not have access to the newer machines which has inbuilt graphics module (Core i range)
so we are not sure about that.....

    Hello,

    For a few weeks, I've been experiencing a weird problem. I'm
    running the Linux version of GMSH (I tried with versions 2.4.2 and
    2.5.0) on a Linux Centos 5.6 release (via a virtual machine player
    VMWare). Whenever I open any model, if I get close to the part and
    move, rotate or zoom, I get logged out of Linux completely and I
    need to relog and reopen all my windows.

    To be more accurate, when I'm really close the the part, the only
    thing that I can do is turning the wheel of the mouse to zoom out
    slowly but not anything else. Then, once I'm far away, everything
    seems fine and I can do anything (pan, rotate, zoom with the wheel
    or the middle button). But if I zoom again too close, everything
    crashes and I get logged out.

    Is anybody having the same problem?
    Kind regards,
    Christophe
