Hi,
My viewport renders flat gray whenever the mouse is not being held down inside of it. I emailed SideFX support but their response was “we only support workstation cards”.
Does anyone have any advice? I have tried all three different GL 3D rendering modes.
Houdini 13.0.343
Linux Mint 16
Radeon HD 6950 (Catalyst 13.251)

Hi K,
like you I tried to use linux (as its performance it's way better than win) but I had big problem with the combination ATI (non professional) / Linux.
Until 2 days ago I was using Ubuntu 14.10 LTS with decent results but there was always some flickering in the viewport.
Then I switched to Mint 17 (in my case w/cinnamon) using the last beta drivers from AMD and all works perfectly!
So my actual “perfectly working” config is:
Houdini 13.0.498
Linux Mint 17 w/Cinnamon
Radeon HD 7970 (Catalyst 14.6 beta)
My next step will be enable OpenCL via CPU
Cheers!
