I'm afraid I'm no Qt expert so will have to defer to others on this issue. > FLTK: > Linking osgviewerFLTK doesn't pick up the -lXft -lXinerama flags needed to > link.

Could you post this change to osg-submissions so I can review it. > Linux: > Clearly RedHat 5 is *not* the linux of choice for OSG. The real question > is: Which distro *is* the preferred one? There isn't a preferred choice, it should work across a wide range of distributions. Good support for any particular distro is really down to the community to ensure that it works as it's not practical for engineers like myself to manage dozens of different OS variants. Even if you use the same OS variant there are still variables such as optional dependencies like Qt and FLTK that can be thrown into the mix that make your particular build system unique. The upshot of this is that to see good support of your chosen build combination then you need to be prepared to step forward and help ensure that the wrinkles are all smoothed out. The alternative to need members of community be proactive would be to restrict the list of supported OS variants to ones that I can support, which right now would be... Kubuntu 9.04, while this is fine OS variant for dev work, it won't be a perfect fit for everyone. I see this as the beauty of open source - you aren't restricted to arbitrary choices that I or other core developers make - you have the ability to tune the software to work well on your own platform of choice ;-) Robert. _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
