Hi droogs
So here I am running Gem 0.81 (Guenter's distribution) in redhat Linux. I have one small difficulty to report: I installed all the extra libraries (Mesa, gltt, ttf, GLU MesaGLU, etc) in /usr/local/lib and found that the two Mesa libraries weren't found by Gem although the others were. I ended up linking the Mesa stuff into /usr/lib and that fixed it. Count on a hald day or so to find all the libraries and compile and install them.
Now here's the interesting question. I really want my nice TV card to work as a video input to Gem. Has anyone tried this yet? The video input objects exist in Gem, they just aren't adapted to Linux yet.
After I do that I want to have multiple gemwinds so that I can draw stuff offscreen and use the result as a pix_image. Also, I want to be able to put 2 gfx cards in my machine and dedicate one of them as the output gemwind so that I can have both my login window and a signal to project at the same time. Anyone have similar ideas?
