Hi list, Guess some of you may have heard that the SecondLife client has been released opensource. While it's not 100% FOSS at the moment, it seems like they're headed in that direction. There are several links on the home page: http://secondlife.com/ There are intructions for compiling here: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Compiling_the_viewer_%28Linux%29 Has anyone gotten this going on FC6? I was finally able to complete the build, but I'm having some texture issues and wanted to compare notes. In case anyone wants to give it try, I've pasted some of my experiences below. Chris Extra packages that need to be installed (not comprehensive): ================================================== compat-gcc-34-c++ cairo-devel Extra Steps: ============ Edit the indra/SContruct file: Around line 208, replace "gcc_bin = 'g++-3.4'" with "gcc_bin = 'g++34'" Gotchas: ========== Running the client "in-tree" did not work for me. I had to edit the manifest file and add 'BUILD=releasefordownload' as outlined here: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Compiling_the_viewer_%28Linux%29 Also check out: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Common_compilation_problems
