Hi, I just want to confirm, that the packages and instructions here for getting mayavi to work in the notebook (e.g. offscreen rendering, without having X installed):
http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/jsp/SPKGS/MayaviOSMesa/ work for me on both Ubuntu 64bit workstation and Debian 32bit in virtualbox. Thanks Jaap for the work you put into it. Here is a trivial patch to the instructions: diff --git a/README.txt b/README.txt index 55371d1..3100d25 100644 --- a/README.txt +++ b/README.txt @@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ ./sage -i cmake-2.6.2.spkg # install a local osmesa, this will work according to Ondrej and Prabhu: -./sage -i mesa-7.2.spk +./sage -i mesa-7.2.spkg # install the vtk-cvs-... (this is vtk-5.5.x) with modifications from Prabhu # with osmesa enabled, see above.
