Problem with fonts in Emacs
xset +fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi xset +fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi xset fp rehash
Permanent solution: add the following lines to /etc/X11/xorg.conf as root (under the "Files" section):
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"
Install Coin3D with Simage
Simage:
- Download simage 1.6.1
- 'configure'
- 'vi libtool'
- comment out the line starting with "predep_objects" to avoid multiple definition errors
- 'make'
- 'make install'
Coin3D:
- Download Coin3D 2.5.0
- 'configure --disable-dl-simage'
- make sure simage is listed to be statically linked, not at run-time
- 'vi Makefile'
- in line starting with 'CC' add '-fPIC'
- to avoid linker problem with libGL.so:
- 'su'
- mv /usr/lib/libGL.so /usr/lib/libGL.so.bak
- ln -s /usr/lib64/libGL.so /usr/lib/libGL.so
- exit
- Download Zlib 1.2.3
- 'vi makefile'
- edit the line starting with 'CC': add -fPIC
- 'make'
- copy libraries to extern_libs/lib64
