Centos
Hi Folks Setting up a Centos machine to work with Octane and maya. I see 3d Folks seem to stick to 6.5 ? Would it worthwhile to start with the minimal iso and work up to reduce bloat ?

xsibatch 2014 crashes on CentOS 6.5
Hi, I am currently trying to render a simple scene using Softimage 2014 SP2 on Cent OS 6.5. However, when I launched the render using xsibatch, it crashes. $ tcsh $ source /usr/Softimage/Softimage_2014_SP2/.xsi_2014_SP2 $ xsibatch -render ~/Colosse/Scenes/Test_rendu.scn === Autodesk Softimage 12.1.94.0 === Abort (core dumped) I get the same error with 2014 SP1. I have succesfully rendered the scene using Softimage 2013 SP1. Is there a way to increase the verbosity of xsibatch log in order to find what is the problem? Thanks, Félix-Antoine
Re: xsibatch 2014 crashes on CentOS 6.5
It appears to be crashing before you even get a license, or before it ever gets a chance to print out the licensing info. The only verbosity level you can change is that of the renderer.
