I have just built 4.0.10 on my RH 6.1 system using LessTif and Mesa. I used a CVS snapshot downloaded Fri 1/28. So far, it works well -- occasionally dumps core (I think the system runs out of resources on a large visualization...). I built it as a mortal user in a /home/... subdirectory and installed it as root into /usr/local/dx.
Java stuff didn't build using Blackdown jdk1.2.2 -- couldn't find jni headers, but I have plenty to keep me busy learning as it is. Thanks to all. BTW the precompiled binaries have a problem with the interactors --steppers, dials -- not working, at least on my system. The CVS version (discussion of a "trunc" problem in the mailing list) works OK. "Suhaib M. Siddiqi" wrote: > Not sure what is the problem at your RH 6.1.
