You can use the file SOP to import OBJ files. Not sure if you can export from Apprentice, i think it's disabled (else you could use the Geometry ROP to export to OBJ)

I'll volunteer to be a guinea pig and recompile libx without xcb support somewhere next week…then see what happens…
When reading the docs about xcb I get the impression it's sort of an add-on/plugin for xlib to improve xlib by giving it a smaller “footprint” (a bit like what dietlibc does). Libx should work without xcb though :roll:

I think opensuse does install the alsa oss compatibility libraries. If not you could add them yourself. You could also check on the cli with lsmod if there are any alsaoss modules loaded. I can't recall any sound issues with opensuse and houdini…

IIRC the snap doesn't work on higlighted (aka yellow) selection sets. If you turn it off, somewhere on the stowbar on the left, you should be able to snap to your current geometry…

There might be a hserver running but it doesn't have any licenses…render9.0 has 0 of 0 available licenses. You can also see that it can't serve licenses regardless…
Iirc you should point the hserver from the renderhost to the licenseserver. On the cli run sesinetd -v or -help and/or hserver -v or -help to get some options regarding remote setups.

In the tab a lot of tools are categorized according to a specific need (polygon, nurbs, primitives, attributes etc…) And then there are the context views (CHOPS/VOPS/ROPS) which limit your options a bit. That's all you get.
For the pdf book, please see another thread in the general forum…little synopsis: it's very unlikely a pdf will be made.
There are a lot of video tutorials which can help you out. Check the gnomon site, the cmivfx site and digital tutors. There are also some excellent video tutorials from Sesi (and they even got some h8 pdf's which are still usefull!) and 3dbuzz.

Richt click on the slider in the view and then unselect “display” or on the left stowbar right-click on “Show handle” and then unselect the hudslider in question. You can redisplay it here as well if you want them in your view again.

nothing much to add except that you could also try drqueue as manager. Free as well and does support houdini too.

It could be that the file version of your lightwave is too new for houdini. Try saving it as a lower version .lwo or better convert it to the wavefront or iges format.

Yup, houdini get's updated daily. You can download the latest version and it should work with your licence. Apprentice users get a free upgrade to the 9.1 version. If houdini hits 9.2 or 10 you probably should buy a new license.

I would rather check if the nvidia drivers are installed. Ubuntu doesn't install them by default iirc (since it is proprietary stuff).

I think you can assign any action to any key, don't ask me how though. BTW, if you do run the latest and greatest Xorg server then forget about using the wacom tablet. The 0.7.8 version of linuxwacom doesn't support the newest 7.3 Xorg server. 0.7.9 is in development but still has (big) issues.

What do you want to slide? Maybe you can use a carve sop and then reference the point in the geometry you want to slide?
