Anyone met with the following issue?

options throw an error...
I need some ideas where to look, what to look, etc.

Hi everyone,
I recently upgraded my Softimage Network license to the Maya
Entertainment Creation Suite Premium - mainly for finally being able to
switch over to Linux (i had used mudbox2009 before, which was windows-only).
First let me say: Maya2013 and Mudbox2013 install and work _fine_. On
every (rpm based-)System i tried them on.
(though i wish i didn't have to google up on how to install these
programs (for real). because the documentation provided by autodesk is
really "limited". things like "use tcsh to install" and "you will need
redhat-lsb" are spread all over their site (IF they are there at all and
not buried in some user-forums somewhere else...)
My problem is Softimage2013, the one tool i truly need and can't get to
work under linux. I tried Fedora14, Centos, even unsupported Distros
like Debian. I tried it with different machines, several different
Geforces & Quadros, different Kernelversions and Nvidia drivers
(recommended and unrecommended ones). i have no idea what is wrong.
Here is what happens:
When i install softimage (using tcsh or csh) it installs supposedly
correctly but spits out a "setup did not complete sucessfully" in the end.
A look at the logfile reveals that cmdreg failed to complete the
XSICOMDLLs list (see
http://www.pixelz.de/stuff/softimage2013_fedora_install-log.txt).
So i tried to manually run it with cmdreg -f
"Application/bin/XSICOMDLLs.lst after sourcing .xsi_2013, here is the
result: http://www.pixelz.de/stuff/cmdreg_xsicommdlls-lst.txt <- it
complains it can't load the custom display host (the error warning looks
more like a windows error, though - so i'm not sure how much this
actually reveals..).
Next i ldd'ed the customdisplayhost.so manually to see what happens.
this is the log:
http://www.pixelz.de/stuff/ldd-libcustomdisplayhost-so.txt <- everything
looks fine as far as i can tell..
Starting Softimage shows the splashscreen, the gui is drawn partially
and then the program hangs forever.
Here is the strace (1.3mb, might take a while to load):
http://www.pixelz.de/stuff/strace_soft2013_fed14_hangs_forever_after_splashscreen_appears.txt
The last line is a "futex(0x2cd65b0, FUTEX_WAIT_PRIVATE, 2, NULL"
This happened with every Softimage version i tried to install and start
so far (2011-2013) on every machine i have (several desktops and two
laptops)
The system i used to do this latest testrun and generated the above
mentioned Logfiles: i7quad, 6gigs ram, Kernel Linux
2.6.35.14-106.fc14_x86_64, Gnome 2.32.0, Geforce GT 330M - nividia
driver 280.13
Any help on how to further investigate or solve this problem is highly
appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
cheers!
Chris

The libcustomdisplayhost.so error will not prevent Softimage from running.
I get the same error here, and I can run Softimage 2013.
Here's a recipe for setting up Softimage on CentOS:
http://groups.google.com/group/xsi_list/msg/6d2d0f483a400e4e
Here's a Fedora recipe posted by another user:
Stefan Andersson wrote an install-guide for FC13 (see below) that can
be used for FC14 (newer versions of Flash and NVidia available probably). Most
important is the Nouveau and SeLinux section. I guess you don't need the
update-stuff if you just want a quick test.
Also important for FC14:
