It's not because it is fragile in Linux but there are so many flavours of Linux 
and the system lib versions differ in these flavours.

To make sure the installation works 100% on your machine, do check the release 
note for the list of supported OSes. Else, one would probably have to customise 
his lib to be in sync with Softimage's.


Cheers,

Hi Sylvain,

...i came across the same problem. Softimage seems to becoming more and more 
fragile on the Linux side of things, an install becomes harder with every 
release :/

Fortunately the solution to your problem is fairly simple:

mv 
/usr/Softimage/Softimage_2014_SP2/Application/mainwin/mw/lib-amd64_linux/X11/libX11.so.6
 
/usr/Softimage/Softimage_2014_SP2/Application/mainwin/mw/lib-amd64_linux/X11/~libX11.so.6

Cheers,
Chris

Nope, I'm on Fedora19. I'm not a 100% sure if I get that problem with all 
Windowmanagers (KDE/Gnome/Fluxbox). I can check later.

Just curious, is everyone using just CentOS?

Hadn't noticed you guys referred specifically to 2014. Ignore my previous post, 
we don't use 2014 yet, only 12 and 13.

Yep, exact same symptoms... it doesn't register in the window manager at all. 
Not sure why, but I'm betting it's Mainwin. :(

Hi,

i can relate, i'm experiencing exactly the same problem :(

Softimage 2014 ignores the windowmanager completely, when maximized it goes 
beyond the usual borders (almost like fullscreen), it doesn't show up in 
taskbar either and when minimized then it becomes a little icon-like square 
that is floating on top of every other application or window. Also it stays 
fixed to the screen, no matter what workspace i'm on. So switching spaces 
always drags Softimage with, no matter what you do...

The same behaviour is true for the mainwin control app after the update... it's 
the usual suspect for this, i guess - but it is still noteworthy imho, 
especially since Softimage 2013 still behaves a 100% correctly on the same 
machine... (So do Mudbox 2014 and Maya 2014)..

If any of the Developers is up for troubleshooting i'm more than willing to 
step in and help out as much as i can on my side... just drop me a line.

Cheers,
Chris

Hey guys,

Anybody out there using Soft2014 with Linux have the problem that it sits
always-on-top of every other window?

It's pretty annoying and I'm wondering if it's just me. We're on CentOS at
work.

Cheers,
