00:48.13 MinstrelGypsy why must *nix newbies learn the hard way instead of receiving help from those already experienced? Is it a matter of having to earn your wings?
00:53.32 ``Erik those who don't understand history are doomed to repeat it?
00:53.40 ``Erik why? what stupid thing did you do? :D
00:54.15 MinstrelGypsy urffff i'm trying to write the text here, not just earn a footnote in it ;)

01:38.28 louipc_ MinstrelGypsy: books are helpful for that hah
01:48.41 MinstrelGypsy louipc somebody writes them bwaha
01:50.06 MinstrelGypsy i never was one much for taking tests though louipc, specially blood tests, I always fail those :P
01:50.34 MinstrelGypsy stead of getting an A i get an O :)

02:36.49 Joely ok i finally got a handle on arbs and other primitive shapes! now...what i need is either a really ingenious idea or do what i would do in povray with a sphere sweep along a spline..i'm trying to make something that looks kinda like this : http://news.thomasnet.com/images/large/018/18572.jpg right now i'm concentrating on the main huge threads
02:37.03 Joely any ideas?

03:17.36 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/conv/iges/BrepHandler.cpp: need assert.h for assert()
03:18.01 brlcad Joely: the bottom half seems to be a subtracted pipe
03:18.31 brlcad (pipes are covered in the advanced modeling tutorial, vol III)
03:19.17 brlcad can do something similar for the finer threads, though the operation is probably different to get the right shape
03:19.41 Joely ah ok, so use bending pipes?
03:23.14 Joely oh i found it.....a coil...ok thanks!
03:48.23 brlcad ``Erik: i'm done hunting and rechecked all of the code related to bn_poly_synthetic_division several times over now .. and haven't found anything ...
03:48.33 brlcad and it all works for me when testing ...
03:48.55 brlcad smells like a non-clean build, even though you said you'd cleaned
03:49.50 brlcad I rechecked the report from jra and his report was the swapped vars, which is fixed as far as I can tell

18:30.30 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/ (31 files in 3 dirs): add the NIST template numerics toolkit (TNT) for more involved matrix manipulations that libbn doesn't cover. TNT is a replacement for LAPACK++. Said matrix manipulations are needed for BREP manipulation.
