Hi Curt, I have been updating FlightGear from CVS about three times during the last months and the program always dies after showing the Cessna cockpit. I am generally using the latest stable release of Linux and of the required software libs. FlightGear compile and install without complains. So I am a little puzzled. Do you know of an up-to-date FAQ? I use an ATI Rage Fury 128 and I have the hardware accelerated OpenGL installed and working. Maybe there is an already compiled and ready to run copy available somewhere.

Richard, You might try running inside of gdb to get some more info about where in the code you crash. We have a mailing lists which I'd encourage you to post to if you continue to have problems: http://www.flightgear.org/mail.html Make sure you include the gdb output, linux distribution, compiler version, glibc version, and any other info you might think would be helpful. > So I am a little puzzled. Do you know of an up-to-date FAQ? Our most recent FAQ is here: http://www.flightgear.org/Docs/FlightGear-FAQ.html > I use an ATI Rage Fury 128 and I have the hardware accelerated > OpenGL installed and working. Maybe there is an already compiled > and ready to run copy available somewhere. You could be running into driver issues??? How much video/texture ram do you have on your card? I know that people generally have had good luck with GeForce cards, and fairly good luck with voodoo2/3 cards (although they are not as nice as the geforce cards.) I don't know of many people running ATI cards, and I've never had one here to try out myself.
