many thanks guys

i see the nvidia spash screen when linux loads and i belive i`ve got the latest nvidia quadro driver for suse properly installed, so that should not be a problem.
will post a screen grab later on for you to see what the problem is
cheers

thanks for the replies guys

i will do a print screen when i get home and post.

my opengl seems to be running ok, because i managed to get teh funky SUSE 3d interface running on my quadro fx 1300, which was causing trouble at teh begging. now its running quite smoothly. But i dont exclude teh possibility of it not working properly with 3d programs. I had xsi demo copy installed just to compare performance wits windows but it is running incredibly slow under linux for some reason.

thanks again

Hi Everyone

I ve downloaded and installed the free version of Houdini for Suse.

When i try to run it its not happening for me.

I see the splash screen of houdini for a sec but It looks like its trying to connect for a license, which it can not find.(is that suppose to happen at all with the apprentice version?)

The problem is i cant see anything in the dialog that pops up. Seems like some problem with the font or something.

Anyone else having similar problems?

I am new to the program and linux as well, any help will be appreciated

many thanks
