3D on Linux

Post by matty47 »

This has probably been answered before, but I haven't uncovered it on the forums. When I try to conpile/run the terrain example I get an error loading the terrain texture. I have put the library in the same directory as the code and output. The ogre.log is as follows

18:46:58: ResourceBackgroundQueue - threading disabled
18:46:58: Added resource location './data/' of type 'FileSystem' to resource group 'General'

To me this seems to indicate that the plugins.cfg file needs to be present, however this file did not come with the distribution. I recall seeing this file in an earlier version but can't locate it. My config is Ubuntu 7.04, Athlon 2600+, 512mb, Radeon 9600SE using fglrx driver. I believe composite is disabled in X11conf file.
Does the 3d engine work on linux and if i eventually create an executable will it run on most linux boxes or will I have problems
Thanks for any help Matthew
PS Using Version 4.10 Beta 2

Hmm why do you get such clean messages?
