Problem in running WWJ under Ubuntu

[linnuxxy]

I have problem in running WWJ demo program in Ubuntu 8.10 ... the program run on the same machine without any problem under windows

The NASA World Wind diagnostics program give the following result:

NASA World Wind Early Access 2 0.2.0

A couple things maybe... 512M memory is not that much nowadays, Do you have 3D hardware acceleration - OGL Mesa?. But if it works with Windows it is probably something else...

WWJ runs under Ubunto 8.10. Dual boot with:
Vista, AMD CPU and ATI video -> OK
XP Intel CPU and ATI video -> OK

With Intel 945G video WWJ runs OK with XP and Ubuntu 8.04.
With the 945G it would not run correctly under 8.10, I had to re install 8.04.
The 945G chipset would not run WWJ under Vista without problems, I went back to XP on that computer.

[asantiago]

I work with Ubuntu 8.10 (64bits) and Java6u10 too without problems.

My only two differentces are: (1) I install Java6u10 manually not the default Ubuntu package and (2) graphics driver card is configured fine, you are using mesa drivers that in some situations has cause headache to me.

Bye.

[nlneilson]

Ububtu can use OpenJDK
Here is a very good link.
http://jhcore.com/2008/06/26/eclipse...ede-on-ubuntu/

You could probably try either Sun's Java or the OpenJDK by changing this:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/
You probably need to change the build path libraries also.

Here is a link to install the Sun java
http://www.javadesign.info/SystemsHa...java-on-ubuntu
then:
sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun


edit: install driconf as vash mentioned in post #11
http://forum.worldwindcentral.com/sh...=ubuntu&page=2
Then in Ubuntu:
System->Preferences->3d Aceleration->Image Quality->Enable S3TC ... ->Yes

asantiago, I also have a computer with an AMD 64 CPU but WWJ with Sun's 64 bit java would not work in Ubuntu, I had to switch back to 32 bit java. Does something need to be set up in Eclipse 3.4 to run 64 bit? This is a dual boot with Vista 32 bit, maybe it is just a 32 bit machine.

[nlneilson]

I installed the 64 bit versions of Ubuntu 8.10 and Eclipse 3.4
Trying to run WWJ gives this error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /home/sharon/WWJ5/worldwind-release.0.5.0/libgluegen-rt.so: /home/sharon/WWJ5/worldwind-release.0.5.0/libgluegen-rt.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 (Possible cause: architecture word width mismatch)

http://www.worldwindcentral.com/wiki/WWJava_FAQ
Installing "jogl-1.1.2-pre-20080523-linux-amd64.zip" took care of that error.

Now this error just keeps repeating.

With the latest nVidia video driver installed in Win Vista WWJ works OK.
When booting into Ubuntu 8.10 the Linux 64 bit driver (177) needs to be installed.
http://www.ubuntugeek.com/common-pro...x-upgrade.html

WWJ runs but very slow. 100% on one of the dual cores and they alternate.
only the .jpg images work, no .dds

javax.media.opengl.GLException: DXTn compressed textures not supported by this graphics card

.dds is OK under Win but not Linux, that does not seem reasonable to be a problem with the video card.

[nlneilson]

Problem avoided, removed Ubuntu 8.10 64 bit, installed 32 bit.
WWj runs OK.

[linnuxxy]

OK nlseilson... I've installed the driconf...and set the "Enable S3TC" to YES...

now it somehow better... the program does not report any error as it was...

at first the globe is appear perfectly... but once I click over it... it turn to a transparent blue sphere!

[baellwe]

I had some problem getting the nvidia drivers to work with 8.10 yesterday. Backed off to 8.04 and everything is working as expected.
