hi all 
when run “Softimage” :’(
max@linux-lvj8:/usr/Softimage/Softimage_2014_SP2/Application/bin> ./xsi
hostname: Name or service not known
/usr/Softimage/Softimage_2014_SP2/Application/bin/XSI.bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libXext.so.6: undefined symbol: _XGetRequest
max@linux-lvj8:/usr/Softimage/Softimage_2014_SP2/Application/bin>
libXext6 provide /usr/lib64/libXext.so.6
Is this package installed?
oops :’(
im open “etc/hostname.txt”
then rename “linux-lvj8.site” to “maxray”
show

any idea :?
Unfortunately SoftImage 2014 is not supported at all on openSUSE, it’s only supported and tested to run on Fedora 14 which is ancient as well.
It relies on specific old libraries that are no longer shipped with many Linux distributions such as openSUSE.
What is /etc/hostname.txt suppposed to be? Ik do not have such a beast:
henk@boven:~> LANG=C ls -l /etc/hostame.txt
ls: cannot access /etc/hostame.txt: No such file or directory
henk@boven:~>
That means that he program tries to open a window on a running graphical session (on display localhost:0), but fails
a) do you have a graphical session running at that moment in time?
b) when yes, who is the owner of that session? It should be tthe same user that is running the command else the owner of the session should give access to that session (as graphical user you do not want the whole world to be able to open windows on your screen, eventual even grabbing all your keyboarding, won’t you? Thus this is protected).
BTW, you should not use
su
but
su -
In fact you should do none of both in this case because running the application as root is of course rather dumb.

But I did not understand :X
I’m bad about “lib” :’(
Any idea 
This difficult problem :?
If you change the hostname while X is running, newly started applications cannot connect to the X server any more.
Btw, you should better use the “hostname” command or YaST to change the hostname, not edit /etc/HOSTNAME directly.
I watch this :sarcastic:

There seems to be some library mismatch.

You are running it as root again (using su).
You were already told that this won’t work and shouldn’t be done.
And such "symbol lookup error"s point to installation problems, that cannot be fixed by running it as a different user.

Summary : Core X11 protocol client library
Description :
The X Window System is a network-transparent window system that was
designed at MIT. X display servers run on computers with either
monochrome or color bitmap display hardware. The server distributes
user input to and accepts output requests from various client
programs located either on the same machine or elsewhere in the
network. Xlib is a C subroutine library that application programs
(clients) use to interface with the window system by means of a
stream connection.

oh thanks
I’m a beginner :X
Those are ok.
Well, I installed it myself now and got the same error message.
The problem is apparently that Softimage comes with its own version of libX11 which is incompatible with the system’s libXext.
I got rid of that error by running it like this:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libX11.so ./xsi
Unfortunately, it still doesn’t work here: it just hangs on startup without opening any window and uses both of my CPU cores.
(you might try that anyway, maybe it would work for you?)
Since this is commercial software, you might want to contact the developers/publishers with your problem.
Maybe they should support something a bit newer than Fedora 14? :sarcastic:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libX11.so ./xsi

[root@localhost bin]#
I will dowenland fedora 14 
then: Copy X11 (from fedura 14) to opensuse
Oh, sorry.
libX11.so might not be installed by default, as it’s in the package “libX11-devel”.
Try this instead:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libX11.so.6 ./xsi
Well, as I said, complain to the developers/publishers.
I wouldn’t recommend this.
You would probably completely break your graphical system by doing this.
Also, Softimage does include the older libX11, but that’s exactly the problem, as it is incompatible with the system’s libXext as I already wrote.
So you would rather need a matching libXext, but again, you shouldn’t replace the system one’s with that one.
And I doubt that the hang at startup that I experienced is related to libX11/libXext anyway.
thanks wolfi323
oh im test the software in fedora 14 [size=1][size=3]its not fine work [/size][/size]:sarcastic:
now im remove fedora 14 & softimage the rude
should support something a bit newer than Fedora 14? :sarcastic:
you right ! its bad software :\
