I just can't get Houdini running in Linuxmint… Anyone recognize this issue? I suspect the Wacom tablet…

Did you source houdini_setup? I'm not sure if running the bin files directly sources setup.

Yeah. I suspect it's the kernel, though, so messing with it now. I was hoping someone would recognize the specific issue, but no luck with that so far…

Your symptoms suggest a bad environment, typically $HFS and/or $HOUDINI_PATH.

After hours of troubleshooting I did a reinstall - it was a new install anyway, and it did the trick.

I must have done something along the way, but not being able to remember what it might have been (did the install 2 months ago), a reinstall was just the fastest way to solve it.

Tnx for the feedback, guys.

Edit: Still pretty sure this was related to the Wacom settings, I remember as much as that was the only thing I had messed with in the system, else it was a completely fresh install.
