[Flightgear-devel] build dependencies for Ubuntu 12.04
In preparation for possibly working on an Oculus Rift driver, I've sorted out the build dependencies for Ubuntu 12.04 and written them up at: http://wiki.flightgear.org/Ubuntu_12.04_Package_List_and_Build_Hints Pace Willisson p...@alum.mit.edu -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

This affects ATI graphics cards when running newer drivers. It can be "fixed" by reverting to an older ATI driver (see link below). To me it looked like a genuine OSG or ATI driver bug (the size of the graphics view port doesn't properly resize to the size of the window), but it's likely triggered by something "special" we're doing in FG, since other applications don't seem to have this issue. Also, it's timing-/sequence dependant: it only affects certain aircraft (aircraft using wxradar, which changes/delays the OSG init sequence on startup, are less likely to have the issue) - and for some people it dis- and reappears with certain FG builds. It would be really good if someone seeing the issue locally could properly debug this - even if it means digging into OSG - since a larger number of people are affected. I tried "remote debugging" this a while ago, but gave up after being unable to narrow it down inside FG. Maybe someone else has better luck.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Error while compiling 2.6.0 on FreeBSD, what the reason?
Hi, my bet is that FreeBSD has a macro named 'nitems' that conflicts with a FLTK member function of the same name.

Please open a bug for this, if there is not one already (it sounds similar to one existing issue), and include all the information below - especially when it broke, OSG versions, graphics cards and so on.
