Hello Everyone,

I also posted on odforce, but have not gotten any replies, so I thought I'd try here.

I recently installed Houdini Apprentice (build 10.0.295) on my Debian Linux box (running Lenny). Houdini is having difficulty rendering buttons, dropdown arrows and CHOPS networks. The “Accept” and “Cancel” buttons that appear on the bottom of dialogue and popup boxes appear blurry with garbage in the button rendering or they appear without the outline box. The buttons are not such a big deal, but I've discovered that the CHOPs editor doesn't render the different channels (No channel lines appear) and nodes in the network editor do not render the details on the node (i.e. node type icon).

I've tried settling some of the environment variables (such as HOUDINI_OGL_SOFTWARE and HOUDINI_DOUBLEBUFFER) but I haven't been able to resolve the problem.

I'm running an HP Compaq D530 desktop with out of the box integrated video.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you can can point me to a resource that you think may lead to a solution, I'm happy to chase down details.

Thanks,
V
