Hello!
Hooray, finaly got Gem working on my debian machine. The problem was with old (1541) Nvidia driver which doesn't like new kernels (2.4.17). I went back to 2.4.7 and now it works.
i have had no problems with the 1541-drivers at all under 2.4.17 it's jsut the thing with higher driver-versions....
what was the problem ? a gem-window that is kind of "transparent" ?
Another problem is with .ttf files. Any idea what could be wrong?
error: GEM: text3d: unable to open font: /usr/local/share/doc/gem/examples/7.text/times.ttf error: GEM: textoutline: unable to open font: /usr/local/share/doc/gem/examples/7.text/arial.ttf
Fonts are there and are readable: josef:/usr/local/share/doc/gem/examples/7.text# l *.ttf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 143258 mar 6 16:26 arial.ttf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 173586 mar 6 16:26 cour.ttf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 188960 mar 6 16:26 times.ttf
i once dos2unix'ed the fonts, whcih was somehow stupid. everyone who has this problems can download now the 3 fonts from ftp://iem.kug.ac.at/pd/Externals/GEM/misc
Is there a way I could set the position of the "gem" window?
no. i do not really see a reason for this: when i develop things i can put the Gem-window wherever i like (which might be inconvenient, but not important) for use in "public" i would run gem in fullscreen mode. (i see a need for a "create_fullscreen" or something similar)
but i might be ignorant (and maybe i find time to implement it...)

Otherwise I am enjoying gem a lot...
Thanks in advance and take care,
