Re: [caret-users] installation problems
Hi Erik, When John comes in, he'll probably be more help, but until then here are some thoughts: * On my new 64-bit Linux workstation, find /usr -name libGLU.so.1 returns this output: /usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.so.1 /usr/X11R6/lib64/libGLU.so.1 /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1 /usr/lib64/libGLU.so.1 * The Linux version of Caret is 32-bit, so maybe 64-bit GLU libs (e.g., /usr/X11R6/lib64/libGLU.so.1) won't work with Caret. * If you have a 32-bit GLU lib installed somewhere, try setting your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to make sure Caret looks there first. Example for csh/tcsh: setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/lib32:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH * Caret runs fine on my 64-bit machine, but ldd output shows it's finding a 32-bit GLU lib: /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.8756: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), stripped Donna On 02/22/2007 05:44 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I recentrly downloaded Caret5 and followed the installation instructions carefully.

Re: [caret-users] installation problems
Erik, First try the command ldd caret5 to determine all of the libraries that need to be loaded at runtime but are not found. Caret is a 32-bit application so you will need to locate, or install, 32-bit OpenGL libraries (libGL.so and libGLU.so). Most likely, you would obtain the OpenGL libraries from the manufacturer of your graphics card. It is also possible that libGLU.so.1 does not exist but libGLU.so does exist. If this is the case, a symbolic link may be created (ln -s libGLU.so libGLU.so.1). Included with Caret are a set of software OpenGL libraries. You can use these by setting your library path setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/ local/caret/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This assumes caret is installed in /usr/local. Since these are software OpenGL libraries, graphics performance will be slow. -- John Harwell [EMAIL PROTECTED] 314-362-3467 Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology Washington University School of Medicine 660 S.
