01:21.24 brlcad hello tancred
01:22.18 brlcad tancred: no, the document was written around version 6 -- that section of the intro about the edit menu is known
01:22.29 brlcad it's there, just reorganized
01:22.44 brlcad there sphere is the sph under ellipsoids, for example
04:03.35 *** join/#brlcad [Prez|Kennedy] (~Matthew@resnet-253-237.resnet.umbc.edu)
07:22.40 narnia well i found the problem. the rename functions are not working correctly. now the trick is to fix the problem without breaking something else.
07:55.06 narnia the data structures for libexpress are ugly.
07:55.13 narnia ;-)
09:57.52 narnia argh, argh, argh
10:00.01 narnia well all was not lost in debugging this problem. large parts of the source code have been either cleaned up or rewritten. the problem is the part42 .exp file. the copy i have is incorrect. even an ap203 long .exp fails for the exact same reason.

15:03.01 learner hello asdasd
15:05.10 asdasd hi
19:41.01 [Prez|Kennedy] i always wanted to do pink and purple for a website :-p
19:56.14 narnia brlcad, when you have a moment would you read part11 ed2 concerning 'use' and 'reference' and tell me what your 'take' on those two is.
19:56.41 [Prez|Kennedy] i dont want any!
19:57.47 [Prez|Kennedy] are they deadly?
19:57.56 narnia no
19:58.04 [Prez|Kennedy] sounds good
20:02.58 *** join/#brlcad animall (~jwmcc@adsl-12-115-200.gsp.bellsouth.net)
20:03.05 animall hello
20:04.13 brlcad narnia: possibly
20:06.35 narnia brlcad, i am back to 'use' and 'reference' being in question.
20:08.22 animall how much of a pain is the compile on FC3
20:08.50 brlcad animall: it should work straight from checkout
20:09.09 brlcad if it doesn't, it'll be something very minor
20:09.14 brlcad assuming you have opengl configured
20:12.00 brlcad animall: your best bet is to use cvs, but even 7.0.4 should be fine
20:12.27 brlcad build instructions are pretty simple: ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make
20:12.35 brlcad (for cvs)
20:14.52 animall um no hardware supporting opengl
20:15.10 animall S3 Savage on this machine, Matrox MG400 on the other
20:16.01 *** join/#brlcad cad892 (~531835f1@bz.bzflag.bz)
20:16.14 animall second machine is sort of stuck with the default vid, no expansion slots for agp
20:16.29 animall only pci slots, used up with SCSI and NIC cards
20:23.20 brlcad hmm, then it will be a slight problem until I finish up this current set of build fixes
20:24.08 brlcad it's presently hard-wired for open gl for our "new" autoconf build system
20:24.33 brlcad that should be fixed by our next release iteration (next month)
20:25.12 brlcad the binary build should work for you, just have to run without the tcl/tk gui
20:25.14 [Prez|Kennedy] wow them video cards are... over the hill
20:25.17 brlcad mged -c or mged -n
20:25.40 brlcad animall: try the ia32 binary
20:26.31 animall ok thanks, off to have fun with this now
20:26.36 *** part/#brlcad animall (~jwmcc@adsl-12-115-200.gsp.bellsouth.net)
22:11.25 *** join/#brlcad PKMOBILE (~Matthew@resnet-253-236.resnet.umbc.edu)
22:13.37 [Prez|Kennedy] i see myself!!
23:06.21 CIA-5 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/configure.ac: customize the test for sys/sched.h to override the default header check that lets the unusable header pass on freebsd.
