Precompiled version has black screen... no earth (Linux Mint)

This is strange...

[Spationaute]

The number also apear has unprintable caracteres!

[Spationaute]

Its used the shared library, I see that Curl works, OpenSSL works, FLTK works. So the problem is ether GLU or GLEW.

[Spationaute]

Try : sudo apt install libfltk-gl1.3 libfltk-images1.3 Then launch again. I thinks you need those aren't install in a reagular fltk installation. I will update the deps.

Can you execute the application in the console. Its quite verbose, it might show the error.

Ho wow... this one is hard. Everything is loadeding has expected. I might do something strange when I load opengl I should not do. Windows bug at the same point.

I am working on the dependencies, specifically mesa-19.0.8. It has a dependency that is taking a long time to compile... (LLVM-config)

[sam1ee]

Oh btw... I am on Linux Mint... I kick myself for not using debian or ubuntu....

[sam1ee]

Things always seem to be a little more difficult on mint

[Spationaute]

Haha should not be your concern, but mine ;). Still it's a path of solutions. Mint is quite popular!

[sam1ee]

I am making this personal! lol

[Spationaute]

The program should catch it. But still, I will ask. Does your graphic card support OpenGL 3.0 operations? I didn't program older alternative. It's might be why everything goes well, except the display. I also forgot to add back a flag for fltk compatibilty before compilling the "precompilled" version. I'll upload a fixed version.

[sam1ee]

I am using NVIDIA Quadro 2000. It is a few years old. It should support OpenGL 4.6

[sam1ee]

With google earth I had to do some work around for getting the Earth to display I don't fully recall what the exact problem was and the solution.

[sam1ee]

I am tapping out for the night but I will be back at this tomorrow

[Spationaute]

Thx alot for the help, its the kind of thing you don't see on your setup! I updated the precompiled version.

[sam1ee]

I installed OpenGL 19.0.8, and reinstalled all the other dependencies. After that I fatal error crash and had to reinstall NVidia 340 drivers. I am getting a black screen now with both versions (0.1.1-Linux and 0.1.2-Linux). What OS are you using? I think I will try that with all the dependencies installed in a virtual machine to see what happens.

[Spationaute]

OpenGL 19!? Here my conf:

5.0.0-23-generic #24~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jul 29 16:12:28 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Graphic card: GeForce GTX 1060 with Max-Q Design

NVIDIA driver 390.116 -> GLX 4 OpenGL version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 390.116

[sam1ee]

That's what she said! lol

[Spationaute]

I wounder if its just slow... The fault line are really large. In res, change the name of gem_active_faults.geojson for gem_active_faults.geojson.bck. It will lower the work on the graphic card. I think I will deactivate this option by default.

[Spationaute]

Hahah Indeed. I think I mixed thing up!

That's what she said! lol

[sam1ee]

lol... everything works perfectly in Virtual machine -- Ubuntu 18.04.3... just doesn't work on Mint yet

[Spationaute]

Strange :/. must be a library which is a bit old.
