adiance on Ubuntu7.10

Hi All,

can any one please guide me in installing radiance on Ubuntu 7.10 . I have
tried to install using the online help at this website
ttp://www.bozzograo.net/radiancewiki/doku.php/standard_unix_distribution<http://www.bozzograo.net/radiancewiki/doku.php/standard_unix_distribution>)
but it doesn't seem to work . is there any specific tutorial or web link
where i can download both the binaries and installation instruction.

my basic reason for installing radiance on ubuntu or Linux based platform is
to ultimately use the radmap program with in radiance,which is not compiled
for windows based systems as of now.

thank you,

···

Hi Adityia.

What is the problem with the tutorial you found online? I could try helping you since I recently followed and have been helped about it.

If you prefer not to follow that way at this address:

http://radsite.lbl.gov/radiance/dist/rad3R8_linux.tar.gz

there are the binaries for linux.

You just have to place them in your favourite directory, say ~/radiance/bin for binaries and ~/radiance/lib for libraries and put these lines in ,bashrc :

export PATH=.:~/radiance/bin:$PATH
export RAYPATH=.:~/radiance/lib

Aditya,

There are some .deb files for debian/ubuntu here:
http://radiance-online.org/software/binaries/rad3R8_linux.tar.gz

Usually when I build from scratch I need to install tk8.3 and csh from the
ubuntu repo, so maybe you are just missing those dependencies (I did not see
tk8.3 in the tutorial's list to apt-get and I'm not sure if tcsh is the same
as csh or not). One other thing to check is taht typically when you're in
Ubuntu Bash or Dash is the default shell. I usually run into problems when
running makeall for radiance in either of these two shells, so try using Csh
instead while compiling.

Hope that helps!
Dave
