Ok, its probably not working cause I disabled the x11 patch, it was
stopping softimage from starting. I actually disabled the whole folder, was
probably too much :)

ok it's the "wingdings" font that's used for the checkbox. I think we
ship that with XSI.. Otherwise you'd get it by installing the
Microsoft core font package on linux

Maybe but it's it's good leg!
And ICE acts as a pretty good prothetic limb :)
And I doubt that time in the future, would be anytime soon,
But for beyond XSI, I
Hey Simon
Any chance you can share some of your configuration info for Softimage on
Linux?

out of curiosity, what is the point in running linux if you are a small
softimage shop? I use linux every day here and can certainly see the
advantage for a big studio, but if softimage is your main app, why run an
OS that cripples it?

We had the same problem and found out the font that Soft was searching for,
it was something odd. I'll find out what it was on Monday and let you know
how we fixed it. In fact I don't think we ever got a check but instead it
was some odd looking shape.
The other massive annoyance was how Soft wa
Fonts are a PITA on Linux, not because of technical reasons but the
licensing of wide spread fonts and the poor choices of developers
(availability vs licensing, fortunately it's getting better now). There are
good quality open source equivalents for almost all proprietary fonts, but

OK, great!
I was afraid people were putting up with this stuff.

I can't tell you how to fix it, but I can tell you we're on CentOS and all
those things work, so at least you know they are fixable.
Things like supra and alt are often related to automated key press interval
suppression, auto focus, and holding down alt (change it to meta, the
windows key) to resi
Thanks Luc-Eric...
I am not sure where to start investigating on the font subject, any
pointers? but the window server tip can get me started.

The missing checkmark in the spreadsheet control is something about
font substitution. It's not a bitmap that's used, it's the checkmark
symbol. In.. Arial font, perhaps. For the keyboard and the focus,
I'm sure something can be fixed by fiddling with the window server's

Hello,
So we are switching over to Linux (CentOS) and we are learning a lot and
are finding some weird stuff. I guess it is to be expected since Softimage
wasn't really developed with Linux in mind from the start but here are some
of the oddities, if anyone can confirm these or provide some sugges
