I have packaged gCAD3D and its 3 dependencies as ch-gCAD3D-1.30.sfs. You will still need OpenGL. I am not a CAD user (yet!) but so far it seems to run well in ChoicePup 412 and should run as well in other pups. The help function doesn't find a browser but the numerous help files may be accessed in /usr/local/gCAD3D/doc. Thanks Muggins, J _________________ SFS-TCZ_Linker, http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/choicepup/ user=puppy, password=linux |

jrb, I wonder which browser you're using? As browser works with p412, (although there are some docs missing in English as haven't been translated.) If you run, in console: /usr/local/gCAD3D/gCAD3D does it detect your browser? |

Netsurf is my defaulthtmlviewer and browser until another is loaded. I was running Opera as my defaultbrowser when I tried accessing help files.
If I go to the /doc subfolder I can click on any of the htm files and they open in netsurf. I'd try it in p412 but I don't have that setup with OpenGL. Maybe I'll do that later this evening. _________________ SFS-TCZ_Linker, http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/choicepup/ user=puppy, password=linux |

Unfotunately I can't see any easy way to specify a browser. I'11 send a query to the developer. |

First I installed Bricscad 6 downloaded from the Bricsys page, native Linux. It a trial for 30 days (or runs?). It is good but old, and not runs with the fluidity needed in for a CAD user. Now I am trying the version 9 (the latest one), in Muppy 083f. I dont uninstalled the 6 version. I downloaded the v.9 seeking in Google "Bricscad Portable". It runs so good as the Win version. Really a good program, and it runs in Muppy faster than Autocad in Windows. It is nearly full compatible. It is not free, but it is a cheaper alternative. I discover that Muppy 083f (and 084) is the most complete an solid version of Puppy I tried. Really the first version to make a complete windows replacement. The linux programs runs very well, and a lot of windows programs too. Thanks Mark. |

Hi Muggins,
Thanks a lot for your job as also jrb's .sfs ! I tried the 1.30.sfs and it runs straight forward (need xorg.xorg.....full-dri.pet - which I don't remind exactly the syntax). Using gcad3d is rather unusual when used to Autocad or even QCad. I'm now learning to work with (when I have time to) with the goal to use it more intensively for my job for 3D structures design. It looks promising. I'll tell the forum more in the future - don't know when... Cheers Charlie |

Charlie, good to hear you're getting to grips with using gCAD3D...I've never used any CAD programs, so would be of no help if you had any queries...

Hi, after sfs4 conversion, ch-gCAD3D-1.sfs tested on puppy 4.3 k2.6.30.5: won't run. Should it be kernel version sensible? OpenGL is working though. here is the error message when running gCAD3D from terminal:
also tested on puppy4.3 k2.6.25.16: OK! after getting OpenGL working Cheers Charlie |

charlie6, I don't know about the .sfs, but the current .pet, v1.32, seems to work, providing you install only openGL & libgtkgl-2.0.so.1.0.0.pet. I just tried it on p430, kernel 2.6.30.5, and was at first mystified when my graphics were corrupted. But then I see that libgio is already included in p430, so after removing save file, and just installing gCAD3D, openGL & libgtkgl-2.0, it seems to run OK. |

I've also amended the first post to advise people Not to install libgio, if using p430. And it appears that libselinix isn't needed for p430 as well. |

Hi Muggins, thank you for your time!
I have to admit that I am a bit "lizy" as a .sfs file is more convenient to install than a heap of pets... 
I'll have a try on those pets. cheers, charlie |

Hi Muggins, I have tried the pets on page 1...thanks again for them ! question 1
Could you help how to get OpenGL working on latest pup430 final? No success using the xorg_xorg_full_dri-7.3.pet  (snif!)
On one machine with basic Intel-845G-graphic-onboard I did not get OpenGL working whereas xorg_xorg_full_dri-7.3.pet installed (glxinfo gives a very short comment; does not even tell "direct rendering:No"; seems really not being working on the new kernel); whereas on the same machine running pup430 k2.6.25.16 + xorg_xorg_full_dri-7.3.pet it tells "direct rendering: Yes" +gCAD3D .working; On a second machine with NVIDIA Ge6 graphic card, using gray's Nvidia.pet drivers (thanks gray ! - see here http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=341972#341972) - that driver has laready OpenGL in it - I got this: - gcad3d working on pup430 k2.6.25.16 - gcad3d NOT working on pup430 k2.6.30.5
thank you for your reply cheers, charlie |
